so sorry
Please forgive me
So sorry is a formulaic apology, often used when the speaker wants to express sympathy rather than accept blame: I'm so sorry for your loss.
It can sound genuinely heartfelt or perfunctory depending on tone.
Used sarcastically, it dismisses rather than apologizes: Oh, so sorry I inconvenienced you.
