Illicit love意思

"Illicit love" is a term that refers to a type of love that is not sanctioned by society or that violates social norms, laws, or rules. It typically implies a romantic or sexual relationship that is considered wrong or forbidden for some reason. This could be because one or both partners are already in a committed relationship, the relationship is between people who are too closely related by blood, or the relationship is between people of different social classes or statuses where such relationships are not accepted.

The word "illicit" means "not allowed by law, rules, or custom" and carries a connotation of being morally wrong or socially unacceptable. Therefore, "illicit love" suggests a love that is clandestine, secretive, and often fraught with guilt, shame, or the risk of being discovered and facing the consequences of the relationship.
