  • reesetee commented on the word snout-fair

    (Obsolete) Having a fair countenance; fair-faced, comely, handsome.

    I was thinking, "Well, it's no surprise why this became obsolete," until I read this dictionary note: "Freq. in 16th and early 17th cent., usually with some disparaging suggestion."

    Yep.

    I'm stealing this. I'm going to use it in a sonnet.
