Uglify: verb – to make repulsive or ugly in
appearance; disfigure.
Sometimes, a word does
just what it says on the tin. Uglify is an ugly word that serves its purpose in
an exemplary fashion, don't you think?
'Jealous of Devika's
apparent attention to her cousin, Girish decided to uglify her by throwing
concentrated sulphuric acid into her face. He, of course, used the excuse that
he was saving his honour by the action.'
24 October 1861 The Pony
Express faced obsolescence due to the first transmission of a transcontinental
telegraph in the USA.
