    Meet a word : Infra dig


    Infra dig




    Adjective





    Meaning : being beneath one's dignity : undignified




    Example Sentence




    Among artists lithography was infra dig by the 1870's — because commercial illustrators had discovered it was a perfect printing medium for glaring posters



    Did you know




    In her autobiography, Eleanor Roosevelt wrote "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." In other (less eloquent) words, don't put up with any treatment or situation that is unendurably infra dig. The word "infra dig" is used in relatively casual, sometimes sarcastic contexts (e.g., "Apparently, drugstore-purchased shampoo is too infra dig for my glamorous sister — only the most expensive salon shampoos will do!"). "Infra dig" is a shortened version of the Latin phrase "infra dignitatem", meaning beneath dignity
