التعريف

Prosecution is the process of trying to prove in court that someone committed a crime. It can also mean the side in a criminal case that brings the charge against the accused.

الاستخدام والفروق الدقيقة

Mostly used in legal contexts and is more formal than everyday words like 'case' or 'charge'. Common patterns: 'the prosecution argued...', 'the prosecution presented evidence', 'under prosecution'. Do not confuse it with 'persecution', which means unfair or cruel treatment.
