delito
/deˈlito/ · B1 · noun · m
crime
delito ~ delinquent: both from Latin delinquere, to fail or do wrong
From Latin delictum, an offense, the same root behind English delinquent and the legal phrase in flagrante delicto (caught in the act). Sound hook: a delito gets you de-lit — thrown out of the light and into a cell.
