auDAciTy vS. teMEritY ( bottOM liNe: NO menDAciTy heRe aT aLL )

"""THE RIGHT WORD ==== {{{ aCCorDiNg tO mY Apple DesKtoP DictionarY® }}} ....................................................................
The line that divides boldness from foolishness or stupidity is often a fine one.
Someone who rushes hastily into a situation without thinking about the consequences might be accused of rashness, while temerity implies exposing oneself needlessly to danger while failing to estimate one's chances of success (: she had the temerity to criticize her teacher in front of the class).

***Audacity describes a different kind of boldness, one that disregards moral standards or social conventions (: he had the audacity to ask her if she would mind paying for the trip).
Someone who behaves with foolhardiness is reckless or downright foolish (: climbing the mountain after dark was foolhardiness and everyone knew it), while impetuosity describes an eager impulsiveness or behavior that is sudden, rash, and sometimes violent (: his impetuosity had landed him in trouble before).
Gall and effrontery are always derogatory terms. Effrontery is a more formal word for the flagrant disregard of the rules of propriety and courtesy (: she had the effrontery to call the president by his first name), while gall is more colloquial and suggests outright insolence (: he was the only one with enough gall to tell the boss off).
