Basically that would be to be dishonest or be characterized by telling tales or falsehoods. Proletariat
proletariat - the working class, especially industrial working class 2. in ancient Rome, the lowest class of citizens. functionary(hearing a lot about these lately - not a very appropriate word for them in my opinion!)
I was giving others a chance to post, but I guess there were no takers, so I'll take it. Functionary: One holding office in a government or political party I hope people join in on this, I think it's fun to learn new words and challenge others on words! Okay here's the new word: PTERIDOPHYTE My oldest took a Science class and they learned this word when he was in 7th grade.
pteridophyte - plants having vascular tissue and reproducing by spores, i.e - fern, horsetails, club mosses junta I think this is one of my favorite threads - history and english are my favorite! I hope some others join in too! Sabrina
"A strutting supercilious person." HUH? New word: supercilious Anyone but Sabrina and I care to try this game? It's fun, and I can tell my kids I'm doing schoolwork while I look up the words!
