Word of the Moment: Sprezzatura

By Joseph Kibe on 18 October 2008 9:35 AM

I've given up on finding the time to dig up a weird, but wonderful word every week. So I'm rechristening the Word of the Week, the Word of the Moment. If I run across something I like, I'll post it.

Sprezzatura (noun)

studied carelessness; the art or study of making something appear effortless

"Thanks to her mastery of sprezzatura, only Emily's closest friends realized it took her three hours to don a pair of socks."
