文法句型

revocation + of [document/permission/law]

用法筆記

Almost exclusively used in legal, governmental, and administrative contexts. The noun is commonly followed by an 'of'-phrase specifying what is being revoked — common objects include 'license', 'permit', 'passport', 'visa', 'agreement', 'contract', 'treaty', and 'law'. The verb form 'revoke' is often more natural in everyday writing when the agent is specified.

常見錯誤

The revocation of his visa was made by the immigration office.
The immigration office revoked his visa.
When the person or body performing the action is named, the verb 'revoke' is usually more concise and natural than the noun phrase 'revocation of... was made by...'.
