A quick definition of indulto:

Indulto: A word from the Spanish language that has two meanings. The first meaning is a pardon or amnesty, which means that someone who has done something wrong is forgiven and not punished. The second meaning is a tax that was paid to the Spanish or Portuguese Crown on imported goods a long time ago.

A more thorough explanation:

Term: Indulto
Definition: Indulto is a Spanish word that means a pardon or amnesty. It is a legal act of forgiving someone for a crime they have committed. It is usually granted by a government or a monarch. In the past, indulto was also a duty paid on imported goods to the Spanish or Portuguese Crown.
Examples:
  • The president granted an indulto to the prisoners who had served their sentences and showed good behavior.
  • The king issued an indulto to the rebels who surrendered and promised to lay down their arms.
  • The indulto was a tax imposed on goods imported from the colonies to the mother country.
Explanation: The examples illustrate the two meanings of indulto. The first two examples show how indulto is used to pardon or forgive someone who has committed a crime or a rebellion. The last example shows how indulto was used in the past as a tax on imported goods.
