Cách sử dụng
The word 'inquisition' was used to describe a series of investigations (often carried out by the Catholic Church) in the Middle Ages to find and punish people they believed were heretics. However, nowadays, it can also be used more generally to describe any intense questioning or interrogation in order to uncover information or the truth. For example, if a police officer is questioning a suspect, you could say the suspect is facing an inquisition.
