The term "trial" refers a situation in which something or someone is "tried" or tested. A judicial hearing where evidence is presented before a judge or jury, and an individual is found, based on the evidence, to be innocent or guilty. Trials can also be situations that prove to be difficult to endure, in which an individual is either found to be worthy or unworthy based on how they respond in the situation.
