Pot-Valiant
Pot-valiant is an adjective that means courageous as a result of being drunk. Our word of the day combines two common English words, ‘pot,’ which means to drink, and ‘valiant,’ which refers to bravery. It’s a way to describe someone who’s had a few cocktails and therefore has a bravery they wouldn’t ordinarily possess, example: I was feeling a little pot-valiant at the bar when the guy stepped on my toe in the parking lot, but when I saw those big muscles he had, I sobered up very quickly.
