Word of the week: Stentorian

Stentorian (adjective)

“Do you know what stentorian means? It actually comes from Greek mythology. A stentor was a herald with a loud voice. So the word stentorian is used to describe a loud voice or sound. So you might say that when Darth Vader was angry he expressed this in stentorian tones. Or ‘she barged through the door in a stentorian manner’.”
