Today’s “Word of the Day” is “indignant” and it is an adjective meaning “angry, fuming, furious, enraged, wrathful, aggrieved, resentful, affronted, disgruntled, annoyed, irritated, upset, offended”.
Example Sentence: The announcement last week of AUKUS – a new security pact between the US, the UK and Australia – is making waves around the world. The announcement is significant not only because it involves the transfer of nuclear submarine technology to Australia but also since it implies the cancellation of an ongoing U.S.$90 billion project by France to manufacture conventional (non-nuclear) submarines for Australia. Understandably, France is indignant. Paris has recalled its Ambassador to Australia, accusing Canberra of “backstabbing” and betrayal.
