/tə pɜrdʒ ən əˈfɛns/ – Phrase
Definition: giải tội, xóa hình phạt.
A more thorough explanation: “Purging an offense” refers to the legal process of clearing or expunging a criminal record or conviction from a person’s record. This typically involves fulfilling certain requirements or conditions set by the court, such as completing a probationary period or rehabilitation program. Once the offense is purged, it is as if the conviction never occurred, and the individual’s record is cleared of that particular offense.
Example: The defendant sought to purge the offence from their record by completing a court-ordered rehabilitation program.
