Word of the Day
Patronize (verb) -- to treat in a condescending way
Word in an Excerpt (We need context. And this is a variation of the word today.):
"...My you got that flame started quickly."
She recognized patronization when she heard it, but pretended not to be offended. "I have a practiced hand at setting up camp...." -- from page 260 of the fantasy novel Choices Meant for Gods
Your turn! What clever sentence can you use the Word of the Day in today?
"Some days, I just want the dragon to win."
