剑桥词典中对nolo contendere的释义如下：

In a court of law， nolo contendere means a situation in which someone does not make an argument or explanation that can be used to prove that they are guilty of something :

A defendant may enter a plea of nolo contendere， in which he does not accept or deny responsibility for the charges.

（在法庭上，nolo contendere是指某人不提出可用于证明他们犯有某些罪行的论点或解释的情况：

被告可以提出对nolo contendere的抗辩，其中他不接受或否认对指控的责任。）

nolo contendere翻译成中文，指的是无罪申诉（刑事诉讼中，被告不认罪但又放弃申辩）。

【双语例句】

He further argued that he did not know that "nolo contendere" was tantamount to a guilty plea and wanted to withdraw the plea， but was met with rejection.

他进一步争辩说，他不知道“无罪申诉”等同于认罪，并想撤回认罪，但遭到拒绝。
