[Middle English, from Old French ofense, from Latin offēnsa from feminine past participle of offendere, to offend. See offend.]

Synonyms: offense, crime, sin, error. These nouns are related in denoting a violation or an infraction of a moral, social, or legal code. Offense applies most broadly: The phrase between you and I is often considered an offense against proper usage. Juveniles convicted of criminal offenses are sent to reformatories. Crime refers both to an act committed or omitted in violation ofand punishable bylaw and to a serious or grave offense: "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors" (U.S. Constitution, Article II) "Is it . . . a crime to love too well?" (Alexander Pope). A sin is a transgression of religious or moral law; more loosely it applies to something regarded as being utterly wrong: "The sins of the fathers are to be laid upon the children" (Shakespeare). "The only deadly sin I know is cynicism" (Henry L. Stimson). Error is departure from what is morally right; the term often suggests bad judgment or lack of awareness rather than willful violation: "All men are liable to error; and most men are . . . under temptation to it" (John Locke).
