Definition
Investigation 指為查明某件事的事實、原因或真相而進行的仔細調查過程。它常由警方、記者、科學家或機構在犯罪、問題、事故或異常事件發生後展開。
Usage Notes (Chinese (Traditional))
常見搭配有 'conduct an investigation'、'launch an investigation'、'under investigation' 和 'ongoing investigation'。它比 'look into' 更正式，常用於警方、法律、新聞、職場和科學語境。不要和 'research' 混淆：'research' 通常更廣泛、更偏學術，而 'investigation' 往往聚焦某個具體案件或事件。
