经常看英美剧的同学，大概每个人的关注剧中都有一两部是律政题材的吧？像《诉讼双雄》（Suits）、《风骚律师》（Better Call Saul）、《皇家律师》（Silk），以及最新的《美国犯罪故事》（American Crime Story）等。看剧中人物在法庭上唇枪舌战固然精彩，不过，有些法庭用语大家都能明白吗？今天为大家奉上法庭词汇第二期，上一期的你还记得多少啊？看律政剧必备的法庭词汇（1）Terms Commonly Used in Court Part 2法庭常用词汇（2）Incarceration 监禁例句：This time his period of incarceration will last longer.这一次，他的监禁期要长一些。Indictment 诉状，起诉书例句：The government's indictment against the three men alleged unlawful trading.政府在对这三个人的起诉书中指控他们从事非法贸易。Insanity Plea(plea of insanity) 以精神错乱为由抗辩例句：Phillips murdered his wife, but got off on a plea of insanity.菲利普斯谋杀了他的妻子，但以精神错乱为由逃脱了惩罚。Judgment 判决注：这个词有两个拼法，judgment和judgement，用于指代法庭相关的“判决，判决书”等意思时多用judgment，而用于非法律相关的“判断”之意时多用judgement。例句：The Court is expected to give its judgment within the next ten days.法庭应于10日内作出判决。Jurisdiction 司法权，管辖权例句：The court has no jurisdiction over foreign diplomats living in this country.法院对驻本国的外交官无裁判权。Jury 陪审团例句：The six-person jury deliberated about two hours before returning with the verdict.6人陪审团认真商议了约两个小时后作出了裁定。Legal Aid 法律援助（指对无钱聘请律师或进行诉讼者给予的专业法律援助）例句：If she gets that far, Jane may get legal aid to take her case to court. 如果走到那个地步，简也许能得到法律援助去打官司。Litigant 诉讼当事人例句：Plaintiffs and defendants are both litigants.原告和被告都属于诉讼当事人。Mediation 调解例句：All efforts of mediation by a third party were in vain at all. 第三方的所有调解尝试均告失败。Misdemeanor 不法行为，轻罪例句：Since when does a misdemeanor drunk-in-public need 2 detectives?何时开始在公共场合醉酒这样的轻罪要出动两个探员?Motion （诉讼参与方或者与案件相关的一方向法官提出的）动议例句：He is eligible now to file a motion for a new trial.他现在有资格提议重新进行审判。Negligence 失职，疏忽Negligence of duty就是“玩忽职守”。例句：The accident was caused by negligence on the part of the driver.事故是由于司机的过失造成的。Not Guilty 无罪例句：He was found not guilty, by reason of insanity.他以精神失常为理由获判无罪。“无罪”的另一个说法是acquittal，二者的区别是，not guilty是形容词形式，陪审团宣布被告“无罪”，而acquittal是名词形式，是正式的“无罪判决”。例句：The jury voted 8-to-4 in favor of acquittal.陪审团以8比4的投票结果赞成无罪判决。Objection 反对在法庭上，一方律师对另一方的陈述或提问表示objection（反对）时，法官一般会做出两种反应：sustained（反对有效），overruled（反对无效）。法官判定反对有效时，相关方面需改变提问方式或者提问内容。例句：He raised several objections to the judge, but all of them were overruled.他对法官提了好几次反对，可是都被判无效。Parole 假释例句：People on parole must follow certain rules.被假释的人必须遵守一定的规定。Perjury 伪证罪例句：You'll be punished if you procure the witness to commit perjury.如果你诱使证人作伪证，你要受罚的。Plaintiff 原告例句：The plaintiff's sole witness, a gambler and layabout, was easily discredited.原告唯一的证人嗜赌成性，游手好闲，其证词一下子就被推翻了。Plea （被告或被告律师的）抗辩例句：We will enter a plea of not guilty...我们将进行无罪抗辩。Probation 缓刑例句：The thief was put on probation for two years.这个小偷被处以两年缓刑。未完待续（To be continued)（中国日报网英语点津 Helen）}

首先我们来看下be guilty of和be guilty about的大致意思：be guilty of：词性为动词短语，该短语由动词be、形容词guilty和介词of组成，表示某人对某种错误或犯罪行为承担责任并感到内疚。be guilty about：词性为动词短语，该短语由动词be、形容词guilty和介词about组成，表示某人对某事感到内疚或后悔，但不一定承认自己有罪。通过下面的表格我们了解下be guilty of和be guilty about的含义、发音和用法接下来让我们看下be guilty of和be guilty about的用法区别：1.意义：be guilty of表示承认自己有罪，be guilty about表示对某事感到内疚或后悔，但不一定承认自己有罪。例子：- He was found guilty of murder.(他被判犯有谋杀罪。)- She feels guilty about her behavior.(她对自己的行为感到内疚。)2.构成：be guilty of由be、guilty和of构成，be guilty about由be、guilty和about构成。例子：- He was convicted of theft.(他因为偷窃被定罪。)- I feel guilty about my rude behavior.(我为我的无礼行为感到内疚。)3.语法：be guilty of后面通常跟表示犯罪或错误的名词，be guilty about后面通常跟表示事情的名词。例子：- He was accused of fraud.(他被指控犯有欺骗罪。)- She feels guilty about her lie.(她对她的谎言感到内疚。)4.情感：be guilty of更强调对罪行的认识和内疚感，be guilty about更侧重对某事的内疚或后悔感。例子：- He openly confessed to being guilty of the mistake.(他坦白承认自己犯了错误。)- I feel guilty about what I said to you.(我对我对你说的话感到内疚。)5.用法：be guilty of多用于官方判决和正式场合，be guilty about多用于个人表达和非正式场合。例子：- He was found guilty of the crime of murder.(他因为杀人罪被判有罪。)- I feel guilty about my actions.(我对我的行为感到内疚。)6.形式：be guilty of是固定搭配，be guilty about可以根据句子需要灵活变换。例子：- He admitted to being guilty of stealing money.(他承认自己偷了钱。)- She admitted to feeling guilty about the matter.(她承认自己对此事感到内疚。)}
