equitable
意味: Fair and just in a way that treats all parties reasonably and without favouritism; in law, relating to principles of equity as distinct from strict statutory rules.
Equitable is a more precise and formal alternative to 'fair.' It implies a considered, principled approach to fairness rather than mere equal treatment — an equitable distribution may not be an equal one if circumstances differ. In English law, 'equitable' has a technical meaning relating to the body of law developed by the Court of Chancery, as distinct from common law. Common collocations include 'equitable distribution,' 'equitable access,' 'equitable treatment,' and 'equitable remedy.'
