scurrility

Someone has been in this motel room all night, strewing scurrilities.

An editorial in The Washington Post was later to describe it as “last-minute scurrility.”

He delivered himself of this inaccurate scurrility: “Let’s remember when Hitler won his election in 1932,” he told BBC Radio London.

Both parties gradually lost their temper and published against each other letters filled with scurrility.

They are to be known by their modesty and precision of speech, avoiding scurrility and detraction and light words and lies and oaths.
