“停任”常见的英文表达可以是 “be removed from office” 或 “be suspended from one's post” ,具体含义和用法根据语境有所侧重:
be removed from office: 侧重于表达永久性地免去某人的职务,意味着这个人不再担任该职位,通常是因为违反规定、失职、能力不足等原因。例如:The official was removed from office for corruption.(这名官员因腐败被免职。)
be suspended from one's post: 强调暂时停止某人履行职务的权力,但不一定是永久性的,后续可能会根据调查结果等决定是否恢复其职务。例如:The teacher was suspended from her post pending an investigation into the allegations.(在对指控进行调查期间,这名教师被停职。 )
