短释义
When you think of the word infraction, think that your offence has just crossed the line into wrong. Something like a parking ticket is an infraction. When you commit an infraction, you’re not knee deep in wrong, you’ve just dipped your toe into wrong to see what it feels like. A misdemeanor is a more serious crime such as theft, and murder is considered a felony, the most serious of crimes.

当您想到“违规”这个词时,请认为您的违规行为已经越过了界限。停车罚单之类的行为属于违规行为。当你犯规时,你并没有犯下严重的错误,你只是尝试一下犯错,看看会是什么感觉。轻罪是一种更严重的犯罪,例如盗窃,而谋杀则被视为重罪,是最严重的犯罪。
