Definition: to punish, with the implication of resulting severe suffering
Notes: In a number of languages punishment is often expressed as a causative of suffering, that is to say, ‘to cause to suffer’ or ‘to cause to endure harm.’ In some languages, however, there are a number of different types of punishment, and clear distinctions must be made between various degrees of punishment as well as between physical versus mental punishment.
