Synonyms & antonyms
  • Related抗議こうぎNeutralA broad everyday word for protesting or objecting strongly; unlike 「抗告」, it is not a legal appeal against a court ruling.
  • Related異議いぎNeutralAn objection or dissenting opinion, as in 「異議あり」; it focuses on voicing disagreement, not on a formal court appeal.
  • Related反論はんろんNeutralA rebuttal: countering someone's argument with reasons. 「抗告」 instead challenges a court ruling before a higher court.
  • Related抗弁こうべんWrittenWritten legal term for a pleading or defence, the defendant's counterarguments against the other party's claims.
  • Related反対はんたいNeutralThe everyday word for being opposed or against something; far more common than 「抗告」 and not tied to court procedure.
  • Related控訴こうそWrittenWritten legal term for appealing a first-instance judgment to a higher court, unlike 「抗告」, which targets rulings and orders.
  • Related上告じょうこくWrittenWritten legal term for appealing a second-instance judgment to a higher court, usually the Supreme Court; 「抗告」 targets rulings, not judgments.
  • Related異見いけんWrittenWritten word for a differing opinion, also a reprimand; rare, and not a legal appeal like 「抗告」.

Use 「抗告」 for a legal appeal to a higher court against a ruling or order, as in 「即時抗告」; appeals against judgments are 「控訴」 or 「上告」. For everyday protest use 「抗議」, for an objection 「異議」.
