Cách sử dụng
The word 'commutation' is usually used in the context of transportation or legal matters. In transportation, it refers to the act of exchanging or replacing something, usually a mode of travel or a route. For example, someone might commute to work by taking a bus, but decide to commute by bike instead. In legal matters, commutation refers to the lessening of a sentence for a crime. This can happen through a pardon by a president or governor, or through a court order. If someone's sentence is commuted, it means they will spend less time in prison than originally ordered by the judge. So, if you hear or see the word 'commutation', it is likely referring to one of these two contexts.
