O certo seria " sinto muito"
" desculpa" e " sinto muito" pode ser usado para pedido de perdão, porém " sinto muito" poderå ser usado também em outra situação.
I- Sentido de perdĂŁo ( desculpa / sinto muito):
a) Se alguĂ©m esbarra em vocĂȘ na rua, essa pessoa falarĂĄ " desculpa".
b) "Sinto muito" se te causei uma dor" ( em outras palavras: me perdoe se te causei uma dor/ também pode ser usado " desculpa")
II- Outra situação para " sinto muito" é o sentido de empatia por alguém.
Veja alguns exemplos:
Se alguĂ©m faz um desabafo com vocĂȘ e te conta uma histĂłria triste de sua vida vocĂȘ falarĂĄ " sinto muito por isso"
" sinto muito pelo falecimento do seu cachorro", sinto muito porque vocĂȘ perdeu o
emprego", sinto muito pelo tĂ©rmino do seu namoro", "sinto muito porque porque vocĂȘ nĂŁo conseguiu uma vaga na faculdade"
* Nesses Ășltimos exemplos vocĂȘ nunca poderĂĄ usar a palavra " desculpa", pois desculpa significa apenas " perdĂŁo".

Sinto/ feel is more used in phrases like: Eu me sinto culpada / I feel me blamed.
already the word "desculpa/ sorry" in phrases: desculpa, estou atrasada/ Sorry, I'm late. "Sinto" It is same as feeling and "desculpa" it is same as " I'm sorry".
