One illustration of this, as John Rosselli notes in his Bellini biography, is Juliet's opening aria in "Capuleti," "Oh quante volte," which shows him resorting to egregious word repetition, so the text will fit the melody.
This year we spent winter break in Paris with our (for lack of a less egregious word) tweens.
The words "egregious" and "idiotic" were bandied about.It is possible, of course, that Ms Moyer is wrong.
Such a Brandis word: egregious.
Then this happened, which is not the crux of the story, or even the center of what was strange to me: Jacob tapped one of the silver balls and it rolled up the inclined plane; he set a flask of water on the Bunsen burner and marked the rising level of the fluid; a balloon distended unevenly; a magnet under sandpaper moved iron filings so as to spell the word "egregious".
I've decided the person behind this is either a bored, bi-polar teenager or Will Self (no one else in the world uses the word "egregious").
The partial climbdown came as a second House of Lords committee issued a stinging rebuke to the Government, describing the Childcare Bill as a "particularly egregious example" of "vaguely worded legislation that leaves much to the discretion of ministers".
One of the film's most disturbing aspects is its egregious use of the word "nigger"—an old offense in Tarantino-land (Gawker's Rich Juzwiak recently compiled an exhaustive history of his involvement with the epithet).
The most egregious example of such word-twisting and sleazy legal manipulations to morph illegal government spying under the Fourth Amendment into topsy-turvy quasi-legal spying is the use of Executive Order 12333, E.O. 12333, what the spooks call "twelve triple three".
