Définition of alibied
Origin :- 1743, "the plea of having been elsewhere when an action took place," from Latin alibi "elsewhere, somewhere else," locative of alius "(an)other" (see alias (adv.)). The weakened sense of "excuse" is attested since 1912, but technically any proof of innocence that doesn't involve being "elsewhere" is an excuse, not an alibi.
- As in justify : verb legitimize, substantiate
- As in excuse : verb forgive, absolve; justify
