<per-spa-kay-shish>
Acutely insightful and wise.
My use:
I am much too perspicacious to fall for such a story. Instead, tell me the truth.
Literary use:
By Augustine
You are of all men the most perspicacious, and certainly the most learned.
Memory trick:
Perspi . cacious
Perspi (reminds of) = perspective
cacious (reminds of) = tenacious or hard working
perspective that is tenacious
Listen: Perspicacious
