Today’s “Word of the Day” is “threadbare“ and it is an adjective meaning “(of an idea, argument, excuse, etc.) used frequently with no effect/use; hackneyed, stereotyped, clichéd, overused, overworked, run-of-the-mill, routine”.
Example Sentence: “Ambiguities in legislation add to existing legal issues. If the legislature passes a law, with clarity of thought, foresight and with people’s welfare in mind, the scope for litigation gets minimised. The legislature is expected to solicit (ask for) the views of the public and debate the Bills, clause by clause, threadbare, before enacting a law,” Chief Justice Ramana said.
