     Usage: {Insolent}, {Insulting}. Insolent, in its primitive
            sense, simply denoted unusual; and to act insolently
            was to act in violation of the established rules of
            social intercourse. He who did this was insolent; and
            thus the word became one of the most offensive in our
            language, indicating gross disregard for the feelings
            of others. Insulting denotes a personal attack, either
            in words or actions, indicative either of scorn or
            triumph. Compare {Impertinent}, {Affront},
            {Impudence}.
