<< review queue entry 61629 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> 1) "exquisite" and "bold" are nearly contradictory 2) Dicts say the couple are separated -- that doesn't mean the marriage has broken up. 3) Most dicts don't have the "scholar" sense. Two that do are PLC and K, but their defs are somewhat different from ours: - "men of worth neglected" (PLC) - "talented person with aspirations thwarted" (K) Our def makes it sound like the scholar is probably untalented. Anyway, I think we can leave that sense out, at least for now. |
