    [Adjective]  | "fla*grant" | \ ˈflā-grənt \


    1: conspicuously offensive; especially : so obviously inconsistent with what is right or proper as to appear to be a flouting of law or morality

    2: fiery hot : burning

    Origin: 1513 ;

     Borrowed from Latin flagrant-, flagrans "flaming, fiery, (of a person) burning with desire, passionate," present participle of flagrāre "to be ablaze, burn, shine, burn (with passion, zeal)," probably derivative of an adjective *flagro- "burning," going back to Indo-European *bhl̥g-ro-, adjective derivative from the verbal base hleg- "shine, be bright"; (sense 1) after {see: |in flagrante delicto|in flagrante delicto} and parallel Latin phrases {mat|phlegm|};

      * Note : The metaphorical notion of a misdeed as "flaming" when the offender is caught in the act first appears in Latin in the Code of Justinian (sixth century), flagrans being conjoined there with crīmen "crime." Conjoining of flagrans with delictum "misdeed, offense" is perhaps no earlier than the fifteenth century. — The vocalism of flagrāre is traditionally explained as "reduced grade" (German Reduktionstufe, more traditionally schwa secundum "second schwa"), where zero-grade—here *bhl̥g- as evidenced in Latin fulgēre "to shine brightly" (see: {fulgent|fulgent})—is reduced to *bhleg- before the suffix -ro-. P. Schrijver gives the more specific suggestion that in flagrāre is the regular outcome of the sequence *R̥DC in Italic and Celtic, where R is any resonant, D is a plain voiced stop, and C any consonant (The Reflexes of the Proto-Indo-European Laryngeals in Latin, Rodopi, 1991, pp. 477-85). Examples are few, however. Another possibility is frangere "to break, shatter" (see: {break:1|break:1}), if the nasal present stem is a later development, and *frag- is the result of *bhr̥g- plus a consonant (presumably the -t- of nominal derivatives). Alternatively, frang- could be an outcome of *bhreng- in place of *bhr̥ng-.;
