WORD DAILY Word of the Day: * phlegmatic *
by Paul Sat 13 Jul 2024, 7:37 am
phlegmatic
fleɡˈmadik
“Patrick has a phlegmatic temperament; he doesn’t anger easily.”
“Some people mask their emotions behind a more phlegmatic exterior.”
“Queen Elizabeth II of England was known for her usually phlegmatic demeanor.”
Latin, mid-14th century
This word originates from the Old French “fleumatique,” which derives from the Greek “phlegmatikos,” meaning “inflammation.” Whereas “inflammation” is a bodily reaction to injury or infection, phlegmatic people are noted for their lack of reaction. These stoic people may be said to have a “stiff upper lip” in Britain, but the phlegmatic philosophy is rooted in ancient Greece. The Spartans developed a strict culture of discipline that would one day act as inspiration for the British public school system.
