意思
To formally state that one is not responsible for an action.
文化背景
In Greek law, 'αποποίηση κληρονομιάς' (renunciation of inheritance) is a very common procedure because heirs often inherit more debt than assets. This has made the verb 'αποποιούμαι' a household word, even for those who aren't lawyers. The phrase is often used by politicians to avoid 'political cost'. It is a frequent target of satire in Greek cartoons, where officials are shown 'washing their hands' like Pontius Pilate. The concept of 'washing one's hands' (νίπτω τας χείρας μου) from the New Testament is the cultural ancestor of this phrase's usage in moral contexts. It reflects a desire to remain 'pure' from a messy situation. In Greek business culture, formal disclaimers are seen as a sign of a 'serious' and 'organized' company, even if they are sometimes perceived as a way to avoid helping the customer.

If you want to sound more literary or slightly sarcastic about someone avoiding blame, use 'νίπτει τας χείρας του'.

10 个问题In Modern Greek, use the accusative 'την ευθύνη'. The genitive 'της ευθύνης' is only for very old legal texts.
No, it sounds too heavy. For small things, use 'δεν φταίω' or 'δεν είναι δικό μου λάθος'.
The past tense is 'αποποιήθηκα' (I disclaimed).
Only in very formal business emails or legal disputes.
No, it means to legally state you aren't responsible, regardless of whether you are lying or telling the truth.

Yes, 'αποποιούμαι την κληρονομιά' is the standard legal term for refusing an inheritance.
The verb itself is middle/passive in form, so it doesn't have a separate passive voice.
