But that C is silent.

And it's almost as if there's an E at the end, indict.

And now we're getting into the terms that are more about legal proceedings, right?

The only time someone would be indicted, an indictment is dealing with the court.

Like we would never in casual conversations say we indicted someone or, you know, something like that.

It's all about courtroom proceedings.

Exactly.

So this is all about is there enough evidence to charge to...

if someone is indicted, if now we're realizing, okay, there is enough evidence to move forward.

Otherwise, it would stay at that accuse phase, and it would never get to an indictment.

Exactly.

Right.

So, for example, this morning he was officially charged with embezzling funds from his company.

So this is where we're realizing there is enough evidence for a court case.

So someone is formally charged.

They, of course, are not yet convicted.

They are, you know, at least in the United States, innocent until proven guilty.

But when you are charged, this definitely has this very serious implication that there was enough evidence to charge you.

Yeah, so this is convict, right?

You are charged, which means being formally accused before you are convicted or found guilty.
