?Which word?

remorse, regret and repentance

Regret is sorrow about anything, including things that were not your fault: 'I regret missing the train.' Remorse is deep sorrow for a wrong you did, biting at the conscience. Repentance adds the resolve to change and make amends. Remorseless means without pity, as in 'a remorseless killer'.

Regret किसी भी बात का दुख है, उन बातों का भी जो आपकी गलती नहीं थीं: 'I regret missing the train'। Remorse अपने किए गलत के लिए गहरा दुख है, जो अंतरात्मा को कचोटे। Repentance में बदलने और प्रायश्चित का संकल्प जुड़ता है। Remorseless का अर्थ 'निर्दय' है, जैसे 'a remorseless killer' में।
