Ever have a word on the tip of your tongue, yet you can’t quite coax it out. HOW DO I DESCIBE THIS MOOD. I couldn’t think of a concessive word for my English paper. Thank you for giving me the words Cynical and Crushed ELS forms!!! You saved the day!!!!
…frustrated, however, the state of being you’re describing is a noun, but I’m not sure what the word for it is, it’s on the tip of my tongue though…. 😉
