Flagitious is an adjective that means criminal or villainous. The Latin word flagitium (fla JEE tomb) is a noun that refers to ‘shameful crime.’ Our word of the day is an adjective to describe individuals involved in shameful crime. Here’s an example of flagitious in use: Andy’s weird behavior made us suspect he was a flagitious person.
