Hello everyone! I hope your week is going well so far. Today, I’m sharing with you my new favorite word.

Guile [gahyl] (noun):

insidious cunning in attaining a goal; artful or crafty deception; duplicity.

Example:

She lured him in, her smile paralyzing his logic. His vanity blocked the thought of her approach being a mere part of her guile .
