Monday I "published" an opinion on a case which I had been considering. A copy of the opinion was sent around to the other judges in my level of court electronically. One of them, a fussy sort, quickly responded that I had used a word not in the lexicon. The word to which he objected was "animositous." I don't find it in any of the standard dictionaries, either, but I'd swear it is a legitimate term, 'tho I can't think of where I've ever read it, used by one of my betters.
