;In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".
froideur
French. an attitude of haughty aloofness; cold superiority.
Etymology: Froideur means “ coldness ” in French and is formed from the adjective froid “ cold ” (from the Latin adjective frigidus). The French suffix -eur (from the Latin suffix -or) is also used in English loanwords from French, e.g., entrepreneur, voyeur. The word entered English in the 18th century
Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.
