minus-squaresin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up20·1 year agoOh, that’s good. A new one for me! From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]: vituperative adj 1: marked by harshly abusive criticism; "his scathing remarks about silly lady novelists"; "her vituperative railing" [syn: {scathing}, {vituperative}]
minus-squareBonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 year agoIsn’t that a great word? I used to read a lot of Canadian classic literature and it was often in there. Also garrolous is a good word.
