Ambassadorial

/ˌæmbæsəˈdɔriəl/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or befitting an ambassador or the office and duties of an ambassador, especially in terms of diplomatic rank and responsibilities.

Etymology

From 'ambassador' plus the suffix '-ial' (of or relating to), created to describe the qualities, duties, and characteristics associated with ambassadors and their diplomatic work.

Kelly Says

When someone has 'ambassadorial bearing,' people mean they carry themselves with dignity, speak carefully, and treat everyone respectfully—basically, they act like how we imagine diplomats should act, even if they're not actually ambassadors!
