Today's Word Fancy is:
Reprehensible: (adj.)- deserving of reproof, rebuke, or censure; blameworthy.
Something I particularly love about this word is its multitude of related forms. Allow me to extrapolate...
rep·re·hen·si·bil·i·ty, rep·re·hen·si·ble·ness, noun
rep·re·hen·si·bly, adverb
non·rep·re·hen·si·bil·i·ty, noun
non·rep·re·hen·si·ble, adjective
non·rep·re·hen·si·ble·ness, noun
non·rep·re·hen·si·b·ly, adverb
un·rep·re·hen·si·ble, adjective
un·rep·re·hen·si·ble·ness, noun
un·rep·re·hen·si·b·ly, adverb
Ex: Too many in this world think reprehensible actions, such as being inconsiderate and rude to your neighbors, are utterly nonreprehensible.
(The photo shows how I will look when the upstairs neighbors open their door one day after being particularly reprehensibly raucous and I greet them with an icy "REALLY?!")
