Benignant

Benignant is an adjective that means kindly or benevolent.  In addition to our word of the day, the Latin word bene (BEN ay) has given the English language words like ‘beneficial,’ ‘benefactor,’ and ‘benediction.’ Benignant is best used to describe sweet or kind behavior, for example: I’ve always found that acting in a benignant manner is a good idea for salesman. After all, who wants to buy a car from somebody who acts like a jerk?
