(You’re getting another new word this week because this annoyed me.)
adjective:
pugnacious.
OH.
Bellicose=pugnacious
That’s informative. (not) I think my Word of the Day people are getting snotty (see how my vocabulary has grown). Maybe when I was studying for the PSAT, I knew one or both these words, but now, I’ll need a little more in the way of, oh, say, a DEFINITION!
Unless pugnacious has something to do with pugs, the dogs. Are they pugnacious? Hey, pugnacious little pooch ya got there!
Oh, am I being pugnacious?!

You seem rather vituperative.

Jim, what a scurrilous remark about Wendy!

You might even say I’m invective!
(thanks for coming thru for me, you writers out there! Did you know journalists supposedly have the largest vocabulary?)

We may have large vocabularies, but we are seldom permitted to use our big words in print. We have to write to the least educated reader. *sigh*
