Aggravate has two uses: the formal sense of making something worse (aggravating an injury, aggravated assault) and the informal sense of annoying someone. Language purists sometimes object to the 'annoy' meaning, but it has been in use for centuries. In legal contexts, 'aggravated' is a technical term meaning the offence was made worse by particular circumstances (aggravated burglary, aggravated assault). Common collocations include 'aggravate the situation,' 'aggravating factors,' and 'aggravated offence.'

aggravate有两种用法：正式用法指使某事恶化（aggravating an injury，aggravated assault），非正式用法指惹恼某人。语言纯粹主义者有时反对'惹恼'的含义，但这一用法已有数百年历史。在法律语境中，'aggravated'是一个技术术语，意味着犯罪行为因特定情况而加重（aggravated burglary，aggravated assault）。常见搭配包括'aggravate the situation''aggravating factors'和'aggravated offence'。

Aggravate tiene dos usos: el sentido formal de empeorar algo (aggravating an injury, aggravated assault) y el sentido informal de molestar a alguien. Los puristas del lenguaje a veces objetan la acepción de «molestar», pero lleva siglos en uso. En contextos jurídicos, «aggravated» es un término técnico que significa que el delito se ha agravado por circunstancias particulares (aggravated burglary, aggravated assault). Las colocaciones habituales incluyen «aggravate the situation», «aggravating factors» y «aggravated offence».

aggravateには二つの用法がある。フォーマルな用法では何かを悪化させること（怪我を悪化させる、加重暴行）を意味し、インフォーマルな用法では人を苛立たせることを意味する。「苛立たせる」の意味を批判する言語純粋主義者もいるが、この用法は何世紀も使われてきた。法律では'aggravated'は特定の状況により犯罪が加重されたことを示す技術用語である（加重窃盗、加重暴行）。'aggravate the situation''aggravating factors''aggravated offence'が一般的な搭配である。

Aggravate에는 두 가지 용법이 있다: 무언가를 더 나쁘게 만드는 격식적 의미(부상 악화, 가중 폭행)와 사람을 짜증나게 하는 비격식적 의미이다. 언어 순수주의자들은 '짜증나게 하다'라는 뜻에 때때로 반대하지만, 이 용법은 수세기 동안 사용되어 왔다. 법률적 맥락에서 'aggravated'는 특정 상황에 의해 범죄가 가중되었음을 뜻하는 전문 용어이다(가중 침입 절도, 가중 폭행). 'aggravate the situation(상황을 악화시키다)', 'aggravating factors(가중 요인)', 'aggravated offence(가중 범죄)'가 일반적인 연어 표현이다.
