The word for sorry is "gomennasai" in its polite form. The less formal version that you would use between friends and family is simply shortened to "gomen".

"Sumimasen" is another way to say sorry, for example if you bump into someone. It is equivalent to "excuse me" in English.

You may say 'sumimasen' to mean "excuse me" or "I'm sorry [for imposing upon you."] You may use 'gomen nasai' to mean "I'm sorry." These are, written in the same order: すみません  ごめんなさい

There are two ways of saying sorry in Japanese. 1) Excuse me = Sumimasen (sue-me-mass-en) 2) Sorry (apologising) =Gomennasai (Go-men-na-sigh) Hope this helps :)
