delusion
의미: A false belief held with strong conviction despite evidence to the contrary, especially as a symptom of a mental disorder; more broadly, a mistaken or unrealistic belief.
In clinical psychiatry, delusions are a hallmark of conditions such as schizophrenia and delusional disorder, and are distinguished from ordinary mistaken beliefs by their resistance to contradictory evidence. In everyday English, the word is used more loosely to describe anyone holding unrealistic views, as in 'delusions of grandeur.' The adjective form 'delusional' is very common in informal speech.
