Is Honor bad or good? Meaning and examples

Honor is something that can not be welcomed in anyone. And not even because the quality is rather unpleasant, but because it makes communication between people difficult. Think for yourself, do you want to talk with someone who thinks he's from some other test than the rest? Of course not. Also interesting for fans of crossword puzzles and scanwords.

Value

Lightly imitating MN Zadornov, we say that at first the word "gonor" was good, and, according to its Latin origin, meant "honor" and "dignity". Honor is the calque of the definition of honor. Translation will not be given, it is similar to the meaning of the Russian word. But then, as it often happens, it changed its pole from plus to minus and became negative, negative.

Today, the character "a man with an ambition" can close many doors in front of a man or a woman. Arrogance is something that in the current realities can not be perceived and accepted with delight. The time of corporate ethics, playing in a team makes its demands on people.

Synonyms

If someone reads for the sake of analogical words, then rejoice, soon there will be an answer to the question, what is excessive ambition. We will put it first in the list. And there will be a few synonyms this time, we will choose the top five:

• aplomb;
• pride;
• star fever;
• megalomania;
• Arrogance.

The reader can have a hit parade, but it seems to us that these are the most successful substitutions for characterizing a person who is too conceited and asked. True, the Russian language is powerful in its synonymy.

Add-on to the person

Honor is something that is forgiven to some extent by aristocrats or majors - representatives of the "golden youth" (children of wealthy parents). For example, Timati is a major. And "forgives", maybe, not the right word. But, at least, the arrogance of people who bathe in luxury, you can understand.

But some of those who have left the certain environment, suffer conscience and sing or talk about how hard it is in Russia for ordinary people without fabulous incomes. A striking example is Kirill Tolmatsky, known to the general public as Decl. The intelligentsia and aristocracy of the new generation continue to be sore with the soul for the people and organize outings into it, thus pouring into the well-known and long-standing Russian tradition. But life experience and ambition is something that is difficult to hide.

Arrogance is completely superfluous. Imagine that the person himself advertises and says what a good specialist he is, how much he knows, but is it worth it? If he is an acknowledged master, then he does not need any boasting, and if he is an empty place, then even more so. After all, for words do not go, so a man puts himself in a disadvantageous light.

In addition, self-confidence, as already mentioned above, contradicts the game in the team, and a single person to survive today, you need at least be a talent, and better - a genius.

Of course, every rule has exceptions, but on the whole the system works like this.
