invective
의미: Insulting, abusive, or highly critical language directed at a person or group. Used as a noun to describe a torrent of verbal abuse.
Invective is typically uncountable and refers to the language itself rather than a single insult. It collocates with 'hurl,' 'shower,' 'stream of,' and 'torrent of.' The word is common in political and literary criticism, and carries a sense of sustained, articulate abuse rather than casual swearing. It can also function as an adjective meaning abusive.
