The word breach has a few other uses.



"Once more into the breach, my friends" is an expression that started as a description of a military charge into the gap between two armies. It evolved into meaning the ability to repeat various sex acts.



Breach loader is an antique type of gun that is loaded from the back.



A breach birth is when a baby is born feet first, very high risk.

“You breached my trust” or “You are guilty of a breach of trust.” Breach is one of those words with two meanings which are opposite to each other. A breach can mean a gap or an empty space. “breach of trust” means there is a gap, an area of mistrust. But something may also breach a gap or bridge over a gap. Breeches, an old word for pants, means that.

breach of trust is a legal term with a specific meaning and is not generally used in conversations about personal relationships.

You have breached my trust. Yes. Unless the person does it repeatedly, you wouldn't put it in the simple present. It's a little archaic, like a lot of legal language, but correct.

You breached my trust (breach means corrupted, disrupted) so like, you corrupted my life.
