A tort is defined in MW as:

": a wrongful act other than a breach of contract for which relief may be obtained in the form of damages or an injunction "

Other than a breach of contract? Torts are wrongful acts?

So what exactly is a tort and what exactly isn't it?

Any breach of any kind of contract isn't a tort?

And any wrongful act is a tort?

I admit I'm in the dark over the meaning of the word tort.

Hoping for a bit of light shed here,
