Lately my vocabulary, and the internet for that matter, are failing me. I’ve been looking for single words with precise meanings. Repeatedly I find there is no one word to encapsulate the idea I am looking for.
Examples:
- An act of selfishness.
- A law broken in the past where the known guilty offender has never been punished.
- A transgression that leads specifically to war (aka an act of war).
- Being in a state where the past has returned to haunt you.
Its causing me a small stint of writers block. Any words jump to mind please leave a comment. I’d like not to have to invent words, but then again, there might not be any other options.
