Ask questions about vocab here.
I'm trying to think of a word that means something along the lines of "wrongly accused perception". Askance was the closest word I could find, but that doesn't fit the position in the sentence.
Consider the following sentence:
"Her speech dismissed the perception that her stance on gun laws was influenced by political lobbyists."

Distortion/fabrication/concoction, etc.
>>9248555
concoction?
idiot
>>9249090
As in made up or schemed?
"Her speech dispelled the concocted notion she was under the thumb of the deep-pocked political lobbyists."

Whats a word for the general shape of something?
Like, when someone says a woman has an hourglass figure. Is there a more fitting word to describe this shape or figure being to used to compare a person's body to?
>>9249136
"Silhouette" is probably the most common alternative.
>>9249147
Do you think there would be a different foreign word? I could easily see such a word existing in German.
Maybe I'll ask one of the /int/ generals to give me their native tongue's version of silhouette.
Anyway, thanks for reminding me silhouette is used that way, it is a much better word than what I was considering.

From my quick google search, it seems the left is trying to push the word "ommer" as a gender neutral aunt/uncle word. I have no idea where the term comes from; could just be some random tumblr word for all I know. Most people just seem to suggest "parent's siblings."
