apology
n. (名詞 noun)[C]

1.道歉;陪罪[(+to/for)]
I owe you an apology for my rudeness last night.
昨天晚上我太粗暴,應該向你道歉。

2.辯解,辯護
Her open letter was really an apology for her way of life.
她的公開信實際上是對她生活方式的辯護。

3.【口】勉強的替代物(或人)

是．絶對是．比較用於口語化方面，就如你在街上撞倒別人，你便會說聲sorry. 又如你在學校打了另一同學，老師叫你: say sorry to him, ok?　所以絶對是道歉．

至於那個apology, apologies是比較用於文字上及官式化．寫道歉信時就會用那字了．

2001年美國偵察機導致中國戰機機師王偉殉職，美國不肯直接道歉，用了“very sorry” 代替。sorry有道歉的意思，但沒有apology來得強烈，又可解作難過，中美各取所需，危機得以解決。
