釋義

同前引注

學術註腳中表示已引用的文獻

a short form of the Latin expression 'opere citato' (in the work already mentioned), used in academic footnotes or bibliographies after an author's name to show that the book or article has been referred to before, so the full title does not need to be written again.

例句

In footnotes, the reader sees 'Mert, cit., p. 87' instead of the full book title.

在註腳中,讀者會看到「Mert, cit., p. 87」而不用重複完整的書名。

pattern: [Author], cit., p. [number] — in footnotes

The professor told students to put 'cit.' after a name cited earlier in the paper.

教授告訴學生們,如果文獻先前已引用過,就在作者姓名後加上「cit.」。

同義詞
  • op. cit.

    the full original Latin abbreviation ('opere citato'); 'cit.' is a shortened form

  • ibid.

    means 'in the same place' and refers to the exact same work AND page, not just the same work

文法句型

[Author], cit., p. [number]

cit., [page]

用法筆記

Only used in formal academic writing, typically in footnotes, endnotes, or bibliographies. The full Latin form is 'opere citato', but 'cit.' alone is common in modern style guides including Chicago and MLA.

💡Do not add a year after 'cit.'; the abbreviation points to a previously cited work whose details are already given.
