被告

bei gao

When someone is accused of a crime or sued in court, they are called the defendant. In Chinese, we say 被告 (bèi gào).

Think of it like this: if you're playing a game and someone says you broke a rule, you are the one being accused, so you are the defendant or 被告.

The word 被告 is made of two parts: 被 (bèi), which means 'to be,' and 告 (gào), which means 'to accuse' or 'to tell on.'

So, 被告 literally means 'the one being accused.' This is a very important word to know if you ever hear about legal situations.
