Word For The Day, Tuesday July 25, 2017
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".
highfalutin [hahy-fuh-loot-n]
-adj
pompous; bombastic; haughty; pretentious.
[1830-40; high + falutin (perhaps orig. flutin, variant of fluting, present participle of flute )]
Bring it on!
Oh how the mighty crash when their greed is exposed (except for democrats) ... Yep, highfalluootin’ is only a republican crime.
Jarod spent yesterday refuting
He had anything to do with Putin
Schiff’s got nothing
The Dems are bluffing
Just acting all pompous and highfalutin
Bill and Hillary received bribes, thinly disguised as speaking fees or donations to their phony Foundation, from many world leaders in many cities, particularly in the Middle East. None, however, came from our true allies in Israel, who would not allow any Jerusalem-juicing nor Haifa-looting.
I am glad my old motorcycle has a regular carburetor instead of some highfalutin computerized fuel injection module!
Not highfalutin,
Mooch is what we need right now:
a smart street fighter.
I always enjoyed the DM because it wasn’t highfalutin, like other British papers. But now I wonder . . .
