英语词汇“indite”的英英意思、用法、释义、翻译、读音、例句、短语、词组-英语词典

The verb indite, rarely used today, means "compose" or "put down in writing," like when you find a quiet place to sit down with your notebook and pen and indite a journal entry or a first draft of a short story.

To indite is to write something creative — you indite a letter, and jot a grocery list. Don't confuse indite with its homophone indict, which means "to charge with a crime." Both come from the Latin word dictare, meaning “to declare.” Even if you indite a really bad poem, critics won't indict you.

I would declare you indite your own; some another artefact would be a writing ravishment and rattling unethical!

Occasionally, though, you can find an instance or two that use indite correctly, if in a consciously literary way:

I hold indited epistles of hurting, of rejection, of sentences.

Ofttimes musicians (especially in electronic music and hip hop) hit a hard time grasping this distinction because they indite music while they are producing it.
