rude, openly disrespectful behavior
Very rude and disrespectful behavior or words, especially toward someone in power or someone you should respect.
استعمال کا انداز:
insolence toward [someone]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "insolence" (noun) with "insolent" (adjective). Use "insolence" for the behavior (e.g., "his insolence"), and "insolent" to describe a person or remark (e.g., "an insolent student"). Another mistake is using it for positive boldness; unlike "confidence" or "outspokenness," "insolence" is always negative and rude.
