sostantivo

  1. 1

    A decision on an issue of fact in a civil or criminal case or an inquest.

    guilty verdict, not guilty verdict, final verdict

    The jury returned a verdict of not guilty.

    I hope the court overturns his verdict.

    Such a scandal as the prosecution of a brother for forgery—with a verdict of guilty—is a most truly horrible, deplorable, fatal thing. It takes the respectability out of a family perhaps at a critical moment, when the family is just assuming the robes of respectability: […] it is a black spot which all the soaps ever advertised could never wash off.

  2. 2

    An opinion or judgement.

    a “not out” verdict from the umpire

    We've reached a verdict on your proposal.

Etimologia

From Middle English verdit, from Anglo-Norman verdit (> Medieval Latin veredictum), from veir (“true”) + dit (“saying”); possibly a calque of a Germanic term such as Old English sōþword, sōþsprǣċ, sōþspell, sōþsagu, or sōþcwide, all meaning "true story, statement of truth, account, history". Doublet of veredictum.
