No a crime is a criminal offense which is separate from civil offense. Civil offenses results in damages awarded to the winner, while criminal offenses can result in incarceration and/or fines.
No, a civil offense is not considered a crime. Civil offenses typically involve disputes between individuals or organizations, and the consequences are typically resolved through legal actions where monetary damages or other remedies may be awarded. The distinction between civil and criminal offenses lies in the nature of the legal proceedings and the potential penalties involved.

Breaking a law is typically referred to as committing a crime or an offense.
The nature of the offense is in regard to whether it was a property crime, domestic violence crime, motor vehicle violation, drunk driving offense, drug related crime, sexual assault, white collar crime and if it was violent or weapons were involved during the criminal act. Obviously when someone is physically harmed during a crime (whether the injury was intentional or not), the nature of the crime is more severe than say a property crime where no one was physically injured. For example, consider that 4 criminals go in to rob a bank. Only 1 of them has a gun and the other 3 were unaware that their accomplice was armed. If anyone is harmed or killed during the robbery, the nature of the offense for all 4 becomes a violent crime (from armed robbery to first degree murder) regardless of whether they intended any harm or were armed themselves.
