Today’s “Word of the Day” is charade and it is a noun meaning “a false display/show/appearance that is aimed to deceive others; pretence, disguise, fake, farce“.
Example Sentence: Former U.S. National Security Adviser (NSA) John Bolton’s book, The Room Where It Happened, was officially released in the U.S. on Tuesday but much has been written about it in the press already. India finds a few mentions in the book, none of them positive, many neutral, and several as a country that has not fallen in line in the context of international treaties. For instance, Mr. Bolton calls the Paris Agreement a ‘charade’ that has given ‘leeway’ to countries like China and India, leaving them “essentially unfettered (unrestricted)”.
