part of speech=ke-rupt this word is a adjective (describes a noun or verb)
historical context+corrupt is a word that comes from Latin

I learned this word in the news.Ive seen it mostly when they talk about political things.
I decided to choose this word because i heard it in school also.I thought it meant to be mean or selfish,but i found out it meant to be spoiled and dishonest.For example to go against the law,lie in court or do bad things is to be corrupt or corrupted.Another example is like a corrupt mayor.They are some mayors that for money or selfeshness will or would turn corupt.They will lieand not follow the rules.Ive found this word in the dictionary on page 321.
