DEVIL’S ADVOCATE
This is a phrase which describes a person
who argues the less accepted viewpoint,
simply for the sake of argument.
This expression originated in the
Catholic church where an official was
appointed to critically examine evidence
and argue against someone’s elevation
to sainthood. For example, you can say,
“Jenny believes in global warming; she
was just playing devil’s advocate, arguing
that it doesn’t exist.”

Daily Pronunciation

Today’s word is ”outrageous”. This is an adjective which means intolerable or shocking.
For example, you can say, “Lindsey’s outrageous behavior embarrassed her mother; she is no longer welcome at family events.”
