Word of the Day for Wednesday July 31, 2002: roseate \ROH-zee-it; -ayt\, adjective: 1. Overly optimistic; bright or cheerful. 2. Resembling a rose especially in color. That roseate view was shattered when the North last week detained a South Korean housewife, on a Kumkang tour with her six-year-old son, on a bizarre pretext. --Donald Kirk, "Sunshine in a Storm," [1]Time, July 5, 1999 The roseate future of so many highly rated blue-chip stocks has been based on that dream. --David C. Roche, "Iceberg Dead Ahead," [2]Time, September 14, 1998 Instead of being witnesses to a comical disjunction between roseate myth and gritty reality, these people were stage extras in a masquerade, whereby the Gracious Speech was converted from a government statement into an election address. --Hugo Young, "The farcical state opening of the election campaign," [3]Guardian, December 7, 2000 "The lass with the roseate cheeks" had already resolved that, if she married anyone, it would be "the lad with the rubicund hair." --Ari Hoogenboom, [4]Rutherford B. Hayes: Warrior and President _________________________________________________________ Roseate comes from Latin roseus, "rosy," from rosa, "rose."
