formally end a law or system

To officially stop a law, system, or practice so that it does not exist anymore.

用法パターン: to abolish [law/system/practice]
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes use "abolish" for physical objects (e.g., *"They abolished the building"*), but it is normally used for laws, systems, rules, or practices, not for things you can touch. Another mistake is using it in very casual situations where simpler verbs like "stop" or "end" are more natural.
類義語
eliminate (More general; can mean to remove anything, not just official systems or laws.) | repeal (Used mainly for canceling laws or regulations; more technical and legal than "abolish.") | outlaw (Focuses on making something illegal, while "abolish" stresses ending its existence as a system or practice.)
対義語
establish (Means to start or create a system or law, which is the opposite of ending it.) | introduce (Means to bring in a new law or system, rather than ending it.) | maintain (Means to keep a law or system in place instead of ending it.)
