Irrupt

from Word of the Day · host Word of the Day

Irrupt is a verb that means to enter forcibly or suddenly. Our word of the day comes directly from the Latin word for ‘broken into.’ When we irrupt into something, we break into it — usually with force. We were lucky that security didn’t irrupt into the office while we were playing cards. Having somebody break into the room as we were engaging in illegal gambling would have been a problem.
