Syyllisyydetön

Syyllisyydetön is a Finnish word that translates to "guiltless" or "innocent" in English. It describes a state of being free from blame or responsibility for a wrongdoing. The term can be used in various contexts, from legal proceedings to personal relationships. In a legal sense, a person declared syyllisyydetön has been found not guilty of a crime. This can be due to insufficient evidence, a successful defense, or proof of innocence.

Beyond the legal realm, syyllisyydetön can refer to a moral or ethical innocence. For example, a child might be considered syyllisyydetön in a situation where they unintentionally caused harm. It can also describe someone who is free from the internal burden of guilt, even if external circumstances might suggest otherwise. This internal sense of being syyllisyydetön often relates to one's conscience and self-perception. The word carries a connotation of purity and freedom from any stain of misconduct. It implies a lack of fault or culpability, emphasizing a state of being unburdened by wrongdoing.
