Ah, louche.
This was the word of the day way back on July 16th last year.
louche (loosh) adjective
Of questionable character; dubious; disreputable.
[From French louche, cross-eyed, from Old French lousche, feminine of lois,
from Latin lusca, feminine of luscus, one-eyed.]
Would perjury have emanated from the French word Péjor?
