Havioured

/ˈheɪvjərd/ adjective

Definition

British spelling variant of 'haviored,' describing something characterized by a particular kind of behavior.

Etymology

British variant of the adjective form using '-iour' spelling, combined with the '-ed' suffix to create an adjective describing behavioral qualities.

Kelly Says

The British '-iour' spelling is actually closer to the original French '-eur' sounds, so 'havioured' is technically more 'authentic' to the word's origins than the American shortened version.
