This word sounds like a badly-suppressed burp.
It sounds scornful, too: in fact it's a truly horrible word which should be banned at once.
Being hard-up should be a matter for assistance and sympathy.
And not burps!
Word Not To Use Today: indigent. This word comes from the Latin word indigēre, which means to need, from egēre, to lack.
