Trivia: Which word refers to a generous or courageous spirit?
Rambunctious
Mendacious
Magnanimous
Serendipitous
The correct answer is Magnanimous
So why is this answer correct? : The word “magnanimous” contains the Latin word “animus” (meaning “soul” or “spirit”), indicating that the word refers to something lively or spirited. It is a combination of “animus” and another Latin word, “magnus” (meaning “great”) — essentially meaning “greatness of spirit.” Today, “magnanimous” can refer to a lofty and courageous, or generous, spirit.
