Today's Word: Crapulence (Noun)
Pronunciation: ['kræp-yê-lêns]
Definition 1: Sickness from immoderate eating or drinking; indulgence of one's appetites to the point of nausea
Usage 1: The two adjective forms are "crapulent" and "crapulous."
Suggested Usage: Now that you know "crapulence" doesn't mean what you thought it meant, you may use it even in polite company: "The crapulous meal Maudie prepared was by turns too salty, too creamy, too buttery, and too sweet." "Every Christmas, I overindulge in chocolate-covered cherries and feel crapulent for hours after." And, of course, the wages of (not being) thin is crapulence. (Our apologies for that one.)
Etymology: Late Latin crapulentus "very drunk" which, in turn, is from the Latin crapula "intoxication." The root of "crapula" is Greek kraipale "hangover." Unrelated to "crap" which derives from the name of an initial losing throw in the dice game "craps," itself derived from "crabs."
