Today’s “Phrase of the Day” is “rave and rant” and its meaning is “to shout angrily and to talk loudly”.
Example Sentence: How can we forget the great big Tamil wedding? It seems to have only grown bigger with time. You may rave and rant at the waste of money and time but there is no denying that it remains steeped in old ways, with some new such as Mehndi, Sangeet and Baraat thrown in. Satorially too, Chennai still remains rooted. If male, you can still happily go about in a dhoti/lungi, tucked up at the knees if necessary. The weather seems to encourage it.
This word is present in From Madras to Chennai: where the past coexists harmoniously with the present and the future and click here to read it.
