B1 verb

révoquer

使い方

Révoquer is typically used in formal or legal contexts. You might revoke a license, a decree, or a decision. It's less common in everyday conversation to revoke something like a reservation or an invitation.

よくある間違い

A common mistake is using révoquer interchangeably with 'annuler' (to cancel) in informal situations. While there's overlap, révoquer implies a more definitive and often official termination. For instance, you would 'annuler une réservation' (cancel a reservation), not 'révoquer une réservation'.

Another mistake is confusing it with 'renvoyer' (to dismiss or fire someone). While a decision to 'révoquer' someone from a position might lead to them being 'renvoyé', the words themselves have different meanings. Révoquer applies to things (decisions, laws, licenses), not directly to people.
