People Who Love P&C

I am grateful that there is someone out there that is "bridging the gap" between students, teachers, professionals, and those (like me) trying to become a professional. Laura [McDonald] has provided a fun outlet for the expression of all the facets of interior design, and I would be honored to be a part of it [by writing for P&C]!

We cannot stress this point enough. People who have a larger vocabulary have been shown to make more money and get promoted more often.

Term Definition
aspersion

(pronounced uh-SPER-zhun)

The fact that the first part of this word is “asp” reminds us of its sinister tone. It a noun that means a disparaging remark or an untrue or deceptive charge that is meant to damage an individual’s reputation – i.e., slander or defamation. It can also mean the act of making such an accusation.

Example: Even though she hated the idea of it, Catherine considered filing a lawsuit against the builder of the development her firm had spent two years working on after they directed outrageous aspersions toward her firm, outright lying and tarnishing her reputation
