         DefinitionShort: to act in defiance of social and moral standards, with resulting disgrace, embarrassment, and shame

         Glosses: ['to act shamefully', 'indecent behavior', 'shameful deed']

         Comments: Behavior involving disgrace, embarrassment, and shame is often expressed in an idiomatic manner, for example, ‘to bury one’s face,’ ‘to hide one’s eyes,’ or ‘to feel stabbed by people’s eyes.’ Since shame is seemingly a universal type of feeling, there is usually no difficulty involved in obtaining a satisfactory equivalent.
