Exiguous - a podcast by Word of the Day

Exiguous is an adjective that means inadequate or scarce.

Our word of the day comes from the Latin word exiguus (ecks ay GOOSE) which has the same basic meaning as exiguous. It is used to describe something that is not in adequate supply.

The exiguous resources in our small town was a serious problem for business. It’s hard to run a business when the things you need are in short supply.
