I want to coin it as “embrace, extend, extort.”

There exists a word for that in English too... I use ’acknowledged’. ;)

This term will be assimilated into my vocabulary.

I'm not sure if it's in my nature or my Unix-tradition nurture, but I prefer shorter words, like "propriety."

I love the word "obstreperous". You learn something new every day.

+1 for "your most humble and obedient servant". Perhaps prefixed with "in eager anticipation of your reply". We threw the baby out with the bathwater when we stopped using these expressions.

Yes and thanks, that is a handy new word for me.

Jeff_Brown | karma 2659 | avg karma 1.8 · | 2023-08-31 11:20:30

I love having a word for this.

asciimo | karma 1295 | avg karma 2.39 · | 2017-06-01 16:43:26

Thanks for the term. I can now compress a nebula of irritation into two words.

at_compile_time | karma 221 | avg karma 2.4 · | 2024-01-09 23:00:17

One of my favorite words.

davidkunz | karma 1162 | avg karma 3.67 · | 2022-06-29 10:26:42

I like that neologism, very fitting.

kylecazar | karma 981 | avg karma 3.21 · | 2024-01-13 18:32:47

Likewise. And captureance should be a word.

steverb | karma 1824 | avg karma 3.14 · | 2019-09-05 10:17:33

I had to look the root word up. So, you're still ahead of my game. :-)

Approbation: approval, or praise.

I feel like there should be a word for this.

jujodi | karma 74 | avg karma 1.01 · | 2020-03-13 22:09:11+00:00

Great now I have to choose a new word. And make sure it doesn't say aggravated anywhere hah

Lapsa | karma 239 | avg karma 0.49 · | 2022-03-07 09:43:12

for example - I am.

choult | karma 6984 | avg karma 13.01 · | 2013-11-26 04:48:06

Alledgedly.

Important word, that.

Ingratiate, that's a good word. Strangely opposed to the word ingrate.
