Contrition
<kon-trich-shun>
guilt; remorse; sorrow;
feeling shame and sadness about something bad you did.
The contrition of the boy made everyone want to forgive him.
Memory trick
contrition reminds of condition
we are in a sad contrition when we feel guilt
At work:
He never showed contrition about accidently deleting the file.
