Impudent

Postby Slava » Sun Jul 02, 2023 9:22 am

This one comes to us from what I consider a misuse of imprudence, "Prigozhin was done in by some of his most famous traits—brazen imprudence...". (An article in Slate, on Putin and the mutiny.) I looked up imprudence, but couldn't make it work with brazen, so I decided to read that as impudence. As the Good Doctor has been brave enough to tackle brazen, and has not been so imprudent to ignore prudent, I figured I'd be so bold as to suggest impudent.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
