Aplicar uma sanção

To impose a sanction

意思

To enforce a penalty for breaking a rule or law.

🌍

文化背景

In Brazil, the 'Lei de Improbidade Administrativa' is a frequent context for this phrase. It reflects the country's ongoing struggle and legal framework against corruption in public office. Portugal follows strict EU directives. The phrase is often heard in the context of 'RGPD' (General Data Protection Regulation) and the penalties for companies that leak data. In Angola's recent economic reforms, the phrase is used by regulatory bodies to signal a new era of 'compliance' and transparency in the banking sector. In Mozambique, the term is common in environmental law, especially regarding the protection of natural resources and wildlife against poaching.

Yes! In legislative contexts, a 'sanção presidencial' is the approval of a law. There is also the concept of 'sanção premial', which is a reward for following the law.

'Sanção' is the general category of punishment. A 'multa' (fine) is a specific type of 'sanção pecuniária' (monetary sanction).

The correct formal preposition is 'a'. Using 'em' is common in informal Brazilian speech but should be avoided in C1-level writing.

Absolutely. It is the standard term used by sports tribunals (like the STJD in Brazil) to punish players or clubs.

It is the passive equivalent. It means to be the one receiving the penalty. 'A empresa sofreu uma sanção'.

Yes, it is used exactly the same way, though they might use the word 'coima' for administrative fines more often than Brazilians do.

You use the verb 'levantar' or 'revogar'. 'O governo decidiu levantar as sanções'.

Usually, yes. It implies an official rule was broken. For social rules, we usually use 'reprovação' or 'censura'.

Technically no, as a sanction requires an authority figure. You would use 'me punir' or 'me castigar'.

It's a penalty applied within an organization (like a company or school) to maintain order, such as a suspension.

Yes, it's a regular verb: eu apliquei, você aplicou, eles aplicaram.
