declare someone guilty in court

to say by law that someone did a crime

استعمال کا انداز: to convict [someone] of [a crime]
عام غلطی:
Learners often say *"convict someone for a crime"* instead of the more natural legal pattern *"convict someone of a crime"*. Another confusion is using "convict" without an object, as in *"The judge convicted"*; it almost always needs a person as an object: *"The judge convicted the man."*
ہم معنی الفاظ
find guilty (More general phrase; less formal and specifically legal-sounding than "convict".)
متضاد الفاظ
acquit (Legal term for officially deciding someone is not guilty, the opposite outcome of convicting.)

اسم B2 entity

person found guilty, usually in prison

a person who did a crime and is usually in prison

استعمال کا انداز: a convict in [a prison / a place]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use "convict" to mean any person in jail, but in legal use it usually means someone who has already been found guilty. People waiting for trial are usually called "prisoners" or "detainees", not "convicts". Also, do not say *"He is a criminal convict"*; just "He is a convict" or "He is a criminal."
ہم معنی الفاظ
prisoner (More general; can include people held without being convicted, while "convict" usually means someone already found guilty.)
متضاد الفاظ
law-abiding citizen (Describes a person who follows the law and has not been convicted of crimes.)

make someone feel guilty

to make someone feel very guilty for something wrong they did

استعمال کا انداز: to convict [someone] about / of [wrong behavior]
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse this meaning with the legal verb and think it always involves a court. In this sense, there is no judge or trial; it is about strong moral or inner guilt, often in religious writing. It is also more formal or literary; in everyday speech people more often say "made me feel guilty" than "convicted me."
ہم معنی الفاظ
make someone feel guilty (More everyday and neutral; lacks the strong moral or religious tone that "convict" often has in this sense.)
متضاد الفاظ
reassure (To comfort someone and remove their feelings of guilt or worry, the opposite of making them feel guilty.)
