An electrical terminal in which a flexible engagement arm of the connector housing is prevented from being deflecting into a concave portion to insure complete insertion of the terminal into the connector housing. The terminal (20) includes an engagement portion with which a forward end (12a) of a flexible engagement arm (12) extending into a terminal reception hole engages when the terminal is inserted into the terminal reception hole, a guide surface (2c) which is formed in front of the engagement concave portion in the insertion direction so that the forward end of the flexible engagement arm (12) comes into sliding contact against the guide surface at the time of insertion, and a concave portion (26) which is formed in the guide surface (2c). The width (b) of the concave portion (26) in the direction perpendicular to the insertion direction is established so as to be smaller than that the width (a) of the forward end (12a) of the flexible engagement arm (12).
