Word of the day - SHENANIGANS

The word today is Shenanigans

Shenanigans is a noun and means the following:

- Acts of secret or dishonest activity, often complicated to deceive

- Childish pranks and deceits sometimes seen as humorous


Malarkey - mischief and messing by a child

Shenanigans are more serious than malarkey (I'd say)
Severity moderates interchangeability of shenanigans and malarkey
Shenanigans are not easily tolerated but malarkey will usually be so
Shenanigans are for adults and malarkey for children
