Dear teachers,
Would you be kind enough to give me your considered opinion concerning my interpretation of the expressions in bold in the following sentence?
Rudolf yielded to the temptation without feeling mean about it afterwards.
yield oneself to temptation = give oneself to temptation = succumb to temptation
feeling mean = feeling guilty
mean = guilty, culpable, shame-faced
