解答:
意味:問題の英文の場合は、下記1の意味に該当。- 人(特に付き合っている人)が連絡しなくなるまで無視し続けること。
- パーティー等の集まりで誰にも挨拶することなく突然退席すること。
Answer:
The answer to the question is definition 1 below.- to suddenly end all contact with (a person) without explanation, especially in a romantic relationship
- to leave (a social event or gathering) suddenly without saying goodbye
When "ghost" is used as a verb, the first thing that comes to my mind is to ghost-write. But from this context...to suddenly vanish or back off from a relationship??
