사용법
Agravio is a noun that refers to an offense or harm, particularly one that affects a person's honor, reputation, or feelings. It can also refer to a legal grievance or injury.
A common mistake is to confuse 'agravio' with 'agravante'. While both relate to harm, 'agravante' is an adjective meaning 'aggravating' (as in 'circumstancia agravante' - aggravating circumstance), whereas 'agravio' is the actual wrong or injury itself. Another mistake might be to use 'herida' for emotional harm; 'herida' is typically for physical wounds, while 'agravio' is more appropriate for emotional or reputational injury.
