Word of the Day: Spurious

1 min read

I learned a new word today.


Word of the Day
Spurious
/ˈspjʊəriəs/ • adjective
Visual representation of the concept of Spurious
01. Not genuine, authentic, or true.
02. Based on false reasoning.
Example: "The data showed a spurious correlation between ice cream sales and shark attacks, as both were actually driven by the summer heat."

Quick Tip:
Think of it as the "imposter" of the dictionary. If it's spurious, it's "spurious-ly" (seriously) fake.
