Word For The Day, Monday, October 13, 2014 – discordant


In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".

adjective 1. being at variance; disagreeing; incongruous: discordant opinions. 2. disagreeable to the ear; dissonant; harsh. 3. Geology. (of strata) structurally unconformable. •If a song ends in one key and the next song starts in a discordant key, it psychologically jars the audience. But these two discordant personalities did make their peace. But a minister can be ruined in his calling by a discordant spouse.

The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....

There are so many discordant voices today, but i think we can all agree that Ebola is the biggest threat of our lifetime. oh wait, we can't all agree, bc the libs think that this is something that the right wing drummed up to discredit their messiah!

The idea of shopping at 7:30 AM (when class usually starts) is discordant with my sleep schedule!

Nothing could be more jolting and discordant with the vision of today's intellectuals than the fact that it was businessmen, devout religious leaders and Western imperialists who together destroyed slavery around the world. And if it doesn't fit their vision, it is the same to them as if it never happened.

I always heard that that Columbus Day sale at Victoria's Secret is a madhouse; I hope you weren't hurt buying Pinta Panties or Naughty Nina Nightgowns

He’s really not scared of much of anything, including big bro, whom he abuses mercilessly! he is a dang barkybutt though! barks for food, barks if he wants something Jules has. Chanel and Lucius rarely barked. Jules barks if something makes him nervous, DaVinci just barks recreationally, it’s MADDENING!
