Word 11: Inveterate

inveterate
(adj.) stubbornly established by habit 
(I’m the first to admit that I’m an inveterate cider drinker—I drink four pints a day.)
 
 
Thanks for everyone's comments in my last post. There were a few intersting and funny words posted, some of my favourites being 'Improvident', 'Slippery' (lol) and a Welsh word; 'Cwtch'.
 
  
In my next blog update, I am going to post a word and give you a definition (as per usual). But this time, I'd like you to submit an example of the word being used in a sentence.
 
I'll then pick the best sentences, put them in a new post, and allow everyone vote on which example they thought was best!
 
So get ready to put your thinking hats on troops!

    I always see about using the word of the day in a conversation with people. So far it has worked out well.
