The Power of Durndest: Uncovering the Archaic Word for Determination
"Durndest" is an archaic or poetic word for "most determined, stubborn, or obstinate". It is no longer commonly used in modern English, but it can be found in older literature and poetry.
For example, here's a quote from Shakespeare's play "King Lear":
"I'll not be mad, I'll not be mad. / I do determine; if thou wilt be so durndest / To hoot me with thy hat and mock me with thy hand."
In this context, the character is using the word "durndest" to describe their own determination and stubbornness.
