Hello!
Which is the correct expression between "guilt feeling" and "guilty feeling", please?
Does each of them carry a different meaning?
Thanks in advance! |

I don't really know  .
I think 'guilt feeling' is used when you are describing guilt in general as a case or scenario. It seems to be used alot as a techincal term in papers.
Whereas I think I hear 'guilty feeling' when it is more present or "real." As an example. I'm having a guilty feeling that what I did was wrong yesterday.
I'm lazy.. i just say I'm feeling guilty..

| Honestly, I don't think I've ever heard "guilt feeling" before. In conversation, this concept would be expressed as a "guilty feeling" or "feeling of guilt." |
