Talk:feisty

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

I did have a dictionary once that had FEISTY down as 'malodourously flatulent'. It's always raised a smile when I hear someone complimented as being 'a feisty woman'!

Been looking amongst my dictionaries today, and can't find it. Anyone else seen this meaning?

My addition[edit]

I added 'easily offended and ready to bicker' per the definitions I'm seeing in dictionaries which was not included. Touchy and belligerent seem to be it's meaning in most dictionaries:
