THIS WEEK'S WORD . . .Louche - Drop by!
Louche
Adjective
(ˈlüsh)
Of questionable reputation, in a raffish sort of way.
Louche is less common in speech than in writing. An outlaw with a touch of class, a rake with a hint of glamour, a hipster in some neighborhoods, riff-raff in another, all might be described as louche.
The Latin luscus, one-eyed, shady, disreputable, evolved into the French louche, for cross-eyed or squint-eyed.
The verb form, to louche, became popular in the 19th century Paris to describe the phenomenon of clouding over, as when some louche characters poured water into their class of anise flavored drinks.
Related Words bad, criminal, immoral, seamy, sordid, unethical, unsavory, wicked; base, contemptible, despicable, detestable, dirty, low, mean, miserable, vile, wretched; black, evil, iniquitous, nefarious, rotten, sinful, unrighteous, vicious, villainous, wrong; blamable, blameworthy, censurable, inglorious, reprehensible; corrupt, debased, debauched, degenerate, depraved, dissolute, gamy (or gamey), libertine, loose, perverted, reprobate
Near Antonyms decent, ethical, good, honest, just, moral, noble, principled, righteous, upright, upstanding; esteemed, prestigious, reputed, respected; authorized, legal, licensed, permissible, permitted; approved, endorsed (also indorsed), sanctioned; clean, correct, decorous, exemplary, proper, seemly; blameless, commendable, creditable, guiltless.
