Today’s Words That Work: Dilettante
Archives: Daily Issues | Word to the Wise
A dilettante (DIL-ih-tahnt) — from the Latin for “to delight” — is a person who takes up an art, activity, or subject merely for amusement.
Example (as used by Bob Bly today): “These dilettantes [people who publish online without caring if they make money by doing it] post their stuff on the Web and give it away for free.”
