使用说明

Use 'accession' when discussing historical transitions of power, international diplomacy (like joining the UN), or the technical management of library and museum archives. It is much more formal than simply saying 'joining' or 'addition'.

⚠️

常见错误

Learners often use the word 'access' when they should use 'accession' to describe a king taking the throne. 'Accession' requires the preposition 'to' when referring to a position (e.g., accession to the throne).
