Niggardly

In an effort to prove that the GRE verbal section is a test of your knowledge of antiquated, fringe words from the English language, the following gems appeared in my practice test yesterday:

• Toothsome
• Niggardly
• Minatory

At least one of these words just appeared in this Slate article about words and their changing definitions. Take note, GRE! Make this test a little more toothsome for me.
