在英美法中，Personal tort指的是“人身性侵权行为”英文释义为：A tort involving or consisting in an injury to one’s person, reputation, or feelings, as distinguished from an injury or damage to real or personal property，指对他人人身权的侵害，包括侵犯他人身体，也包括以诽谤、诬告等方式而伤害他人感情和名誉。

Property tort指的是：“财产性侵权行为”，即对他人的动产或不动产造成损害的侵权行为。

【拓展】在我国法律中，也有“侵权行为”这一概念，是指侵犯他人的人身财产或知识产权，依法应承担民事责任的违法行为。侵权行为发生后，在侵害人与受害人之间就产生了特定的民事权利义务关系，即受害人有权要求侵权人赔偿损失。英文可翻译为“tortious conduct/act”。无论是英美法系国家还是大陆法系国家的立法（判例），都有侵权行为法律规范的规定。
