chicanery
All you tricksters out there ... don't feel dejected even if your tricks are not working because now there is a word for you. Yes, this word is dedicated to all of them who don't prefer the hard way and always search shortcut's for easy gains . Etymologically this word comes from French chicaner meaning '' to use tricks " and German schicken meaning "to arrange" and the pronunciation of the word goes like "shih-key-nuh-ree". Now lets head to the meaning.
Dictionary meaning (noun)-- The use of tricks to deceive someone (usually to extract money from them)
Example sentence -- Even if you resort to such chicanery you will be able to extract only 55 cents from me ... that all I have in my bank account !!
Fun description -- Such a pleasant word to make peoples pockets light . Yes.... I support chicanery but with bias . Remember that big fat businessman in your neighborhood who has always parked that posh car infront of your door knowing that you won't get it !! Its times to use some nice underhand chicanery to get his money out and get him in line. Remember that rich bully at your school who never got into the school bus and gave you that condescending look ... I wish you knew not only the word but the use of chicanery then. Lastly remember the cute girl you were going to propose but you backed off because her personal bathroom was of the size of your bedroom. Now... this time you don't wanna use any chicanery ..... you loved the her didn't you ?? :)
P.S. -- Well... against whoever you use chicanery I don't mind... but please don't use it against me!! (and I don't have much bank balance either :P)
