FRENCH WORD OF THE DAY: Délit

Délit: An infraction or violation of the law; a criminal offense.

As seen in: « Un homme de 22 ans recherché pour une soixantaine de délits a été arrêté dans la nuit de lundi au terme d’une poursuite policière de 30 minutes sur les routes de la couronne nord de Montréal. »

(Translation: “A 22-year-old man wanted for some sixty criminal offenses was arrested Monday night following a 30-minute pursuit by police on the highways north of Montreal.”)
