this word of the day??
the worthless word for the day is: axiopisty
[fr. Gk axio-pistos < axios, worthy + pistos,
to be trusted] /aks ee AH pih stee/
obs. rare : the quality that makes something believable: trustworthiness
"She does not only attribute to their sacred authors
the axiopisty, a credibility fully merited, but also
the autopisty; that is to say a right to be believed
independently of their circumstances or of their
personal qualities..."
- Louis Gaussen, Theopneusty (1844)
"How can you not suspect the axiopisty of someone
who has been convicted of a white-collar crime?"
- New Straits Times, (Kuala Lumpur) July 1, 1996
bonus: autopisty - self-authentication
