Your (singular) fault, due to your error; you are to blame. Labels: uncommon Example: It seems a long time since Mr. [Paul] Henneberg has vouchsafed the public a flute solo: he was in rare form and it was a grand treat.

Understood we stood-in, not well, but for a thrashing. But still it was a success and netted a nice sum for the Aid.—Why? Well, we took the item via phone and got our wires crossed. Mea culpa, tua culpa, or what means the same.
Word: tua culpa Part of Speech: noun Etymology: Learned borrowing from the Latin phrase tuā culpā (“through your (singular) fault”), ablative case of tua culpa (“your fault, guilt”), used in English by analogy with mea culpa; also compare nostra culpa. 1.

Example: And what distinguishes [Stefan] Kanfer's recounting of the last blacklist is its note of intelligent compassion. Kanfer is more interested in the people than politics, in delineating human beings than in location party lines. And unlike so many accounts of the blacklist that I have read, his is not a quest for self-justification, a tua culpa or a J'Accuse.
