guilty
意味: Responsible for wrongdoing; feeling remorse about something
Guilty can describe either a legal status (found guilty of a crime) or an emotional state (feeling guilty about something). Legally, it means being responsible for committing an offence. Emotionally, it describes the uncomfortable feeling of remorse when you believe you have done something wrong. A 'guilty pleasure' is something you enjoy but feel embarrassed to admit.
