On the one hand, “stopping” someone from doing something (such as in the case of punishment) On the other hand, “stopping” someone from doing something (such as in the case of punishment)

I have deleted the word that I normally use to refer to sentence. I’ve lost the word that I need again.

Is there any penalty for doing crime?

The word is related to stopping, hindrance, incentive, restrict, etc. The word is related to stopping, hindrance, incentive, restrict and comparing.

In this usage, it should also mean that it stops people from committing crime because they don’t want to go to jail. Jail stops a person from committing a serious crime. It should fit both of these simultaneously.

I hope this isn’t too far of a stretch.

How come the word deter is the same word created using derivational morphology?

There are many synonyms of hinder and deter, but one typically thinks of deterrence as a (potential) factor in doling out criminal penalties.

Things like restrain, obstruct, impede, and dissuade aren’t there yet.
