Inveigh

Inveigh is a verb that means to write or speak against something with great hostility. Our word of the day comes from the latin word vehere (vay HAIR ay) which means ‘to carry.’ In time, the word came to mean ‘attack.’ When we inveigh against something or someone we attack — usually with words. Here’s an example: Myra tried to inveigh against habit of using unauthorized parking spaces at work, but then in the middle of her attack, someone reminded her were she parked that morning.
