7 Intentional tort Purpose 意圖 直接故意 Knowledge 知情 間接故意
An intentional tort is a category of torts that describes a civil wrong resulting from an intentional act on the part of the tortfeasor.（侵權者）

8 Negligence 合理的注意義務Duty of care
The term negligence pertains to a tort that simply results from the failure of the tortfeasor to take sufficient care in fulfilling a duty owed

9 合理注意義務 It can be generally defined as conduct that is culpable（應負責） because it falls short of what a reasonable person (合理之人)would do to protect another individual from foreseeable risks(可預見的風險) of harm.

10 Recklessness重大過失 Conduct whereby the actor does not desire harmful consequence（結果） but...foresees（預見） the possibility and consciously（有意識地） takes the risk（風險） a state of mind in which a person does not care about the consequences of his or her actions

11 Contributory negligence促成過失
where a plaintiff（原告）, Claimant（請求者） has, through his own negligence, contributed to the harm he suffered. Contributory negligence is often regarded as unfair because under the doctrine（法律原則） a victim who is at fault to any degree, including only 1% at fault, may be denied compensation（賠償） entirely

12 comparative negligence 比較過失
純粹的比較過失，按過失比例分攤 "pure" comparative negligence. A plaintiff who was, say, 90% to blame for an accident could recover 10% of his losses.

13 比較過失 修正的比較過失，原告自己的過失不能超過50％
“modified” comparative negligence. One variant allows plaintiffs to recover only if the plaintiff‘s negligence is “not greater than” the defendant’s（被告） (the plaintiff's negligence must not be more than 50% of the combined negligence of both parties).

14 assumption of the risk自願承擔風險
The assumption of the risk defense（防禦、抗辯） entails the Defendant proving（證明） that the plaintiff knew of a dangerous condition and voluntarily exposed himself or herself to the danger.

15 strict liability嚴格責任 strict liability torts refers to situations where a party is liable for（負責任） injuries （損害）no matter what precautions（預防措施） were taken.

16 嚴格責任 strict liability is the imposition（施加） of liability on a party without a finding of fault (such as negligence or tortious intent). The plaintiff need only prove that the tort occurred and that the defendant was responsible. 產品責任product liability 雇用人責任respondeat superior
