unpleasant sense of superiority
The feeling or way of thinking that you are more important or better than other people, which makes you act in a rude or proud way.
వాడుక నమూనా:
[someone]'s arrogance about [something]
సాధారణ తప్పు:
Learners sometimes confuse "arrogance" with "confidence." "Confidence" is usually positive and means believing in yourself, while "arrogance" is negative and means you believe you are better than other people and often show disrespect. Also, learners may incorrectly say *"an arrogance person"* instead of "an arrogant person" ("arrogance" is a noun; "arrogant" is the adjective).
పర్యాయపదాలు
conceit (Often suggests excessive pride in your own abilities or appearance, slightly more informal than "arrogance".)
|
hubris (A more formal or literary word, often used for dangerous overconfidence that leads to failure.)
|
egotism (Focuses on being self-centered and talking or thinking too much about yourself, not always as openly disrespectful as arrogance.)
విరుద్ధపదాలు
humility (Describes a modest attitude and a lack of belief that you are better than others.)
|
modesty (Emphasizes downplaying your own importance or achievements, the opposite of showing off your superiority.)
