WAST OBSEQUIOUS Meaning and
Definition
-
The phrase "wast obsequious" is a combination of two words that have slightly different meanings. "Wast" is the archaic second-person singular form of the verb "to be" in the past tense. It is derived from the Middle English word "were" which meant "were" or "was." "Obsequious," on the other hand, is an adjective that describes someone who is excessively attentive, submissive, or eager to please, often to the point of being servile or fawning.
When these words are combined, "wast obsequious" essentially means "you were excessively attentive" or "you were excessively subservient." The phrase suggests that someone was overly deferential or submissive in their behavior towards another individual or in a particular situation, often to the point where it may have been perceived as insincere or disingenuous.
This expression can be used to convey a sense of criticism or disdain towards someone's behavior, suggesting that they were being falsely flattering or excessively obedient in an attempt to gain favor or advantage. It may imply that the person in question was not acting genuinely but rather putting on a façade of exaggerated politeness or deference. The phrase "wast obsequious" thus highlights the excessive or insincere nature of someone's submissive behavior.
