Read a random definition: genuine issue of material fact

A quick definition of ravishment:

Term: RAVISHMENT

Definition: Ravishment is an old-fashioned word that means forcefully taking someone, especially a woman, and carrying them away. It can also mean rape. However, the word is not used much anymore because it has a romantic meaning in other contexts. The word "ravish" is the verb form of ravishment.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Ravishment is an old-fashioned word that means the forcible seizure and carrying off of another person, especially a woman. It can also refer to rape.

Example: The knight rode into the village and carried off the fair maiden, much to the dismay of her family.

This example illustrates the first definition of ravishment, where a person is taken against their will.

Example: The law defined ravishment as any criminal sexual intercourse, including rape.

This example illustrates the second definition of ravishment, where it is used as a legal term to describe a specific type of sexual assault.

It is important to note that the term ravishment is considered inappropriate for modern usage due to its romantic connotations in other contexts. It is important to use language that is respectful and appropriate when discussing sensitive topics like sexual assault.
