Adjective.
/ir.reˈβo.ka.le/
The term "irrevocable" refers to something that cannot be reversed, changed, or undone. It is often used in legal and economic contexts to describe actions, agreements, or decisions that are final and binding. The term is formal and tends to be used more frequently in written contexts, such as legal documents, contracts, or official statements, rather than in everyday conversational speech.
"Irrevocable" is relatively common in legal and financial terminology, particularly in the context of contracts and agreements.
