Cheating can refer specifically to infidelity. Someone who is known for cheating is referred to as a
cheat in British English, and a
cheater in American English. A person described as a "cheat" doesn't necessarily cheat all the time, but rather, relies on deceitful tactics to the point of acquiring a reputation for it.
