rude, disrespectful boldness

very rude behavior or words that do not show respect, especially to someone important or older

استعمال کا انداز: [someone] has the impudence to [verb]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse 'impudence' with 'impatience' or 'imprudence' because they look similar. 'Impudence' means rude lack of respect; 'impatience' means not wanting to wait; 'imprudence' (less common) means not being careful or wise. Some learners also think 'impudence' is positive, like 'confidence', but it always has a negative, disrespectful feeling.
