obstreperous (140)
Encarta : noisy and aggressively boisterous
Read this word in the wee hours of the morning, in a book by Emma Bull – an author that I definitely think I am going to appreciate.
To quote "Come along, my obstreperous primrose. Everything will be improved by a night's sleep and a day's reflection."
- The Phouka, Emma Bull, The War of the Oaks
I had a mild idea what it might mean, but had to find out for sure this morning.
