To abet isto aid and assist. For example providing say, a box of sleeping pills to somebody known to be contemplating the suicide act. ( it would make one feel very guilty) I am not talking about jocular usage such as the slang phrase ( Go Jump in the Lake!) This phrase was used in ad copy for Lake Amphibians! It would have to be more direct that that, providing weapons or drugs. From the way I read it, the Nurse in Romeo and Juliet was abetting the distaff side of the double suicide by providing Drugs to Juliet. If this happened in modern times- say a School nurse, she could lose her license and could stand criminal charges. It would be assisting the suicide intent.
