Caveat

This word is quite interesting… but there’s a caveat:

And that is how it’s done. It means a warning, essentially. This word is so ominous and imposing that it’s not even English. As a fun little extra, it also has three (at least) quick phrases that you can throw into almost any situation:

Caveat lector (let the reader beware),
Caveat emptor (let the buyer beware), and
Caveat venditor (let the seller beware).
