Trivia: What is a word for frivolous banter?
Flabbergast
Deliquescent
Persiflage
Limerence
The correct answer is Persiflage
So why is this answer correct? : “Persiflage” was adopted into English in the 18th century from “persifler,” the French word for “banter.” “Persifler” is a combination of two French words: “per,” meaning “thoroughly,” and “siffler,” meaning “to whistle, hiss, or boo.”
