WORD: Precatory

Try and use this one today! Precatory is an adjective referring to the request of something. It is derived from the Latin "precari" which means "to pray."

All of the laws Senator Cawshaus backs are precatory and have little mandate.

A precatory memo about skipping the usual lunch hour sent from the head of the company was met with mixed emotions by the employees.
