My new word

August 17, 2008 12:57am CST
I learned a new word this morning....PUSILLANIMOUS. Does anyone know what it means and how it could be used in spoken English or do you think it will be too much of a mouthfull and should only be written?

Not just a mouthful an eyeful as well. Could not even spell it when i tried to write it so had to cut and paste. Good thing the spell checker knew what it was

What does it mean, anyway? This is the first time I saw it. I may just look at the dictionary about it.

I have found out it means no backbone and was used in relation to a lawyer who made the poorest representation of a client who got banged up
