14 hrs confidence:
tachar de infame Explanation: En el Diccionario de la Real Academia Española encontré las siguientes palabras: tachar: Atribuir a algo o a alguien cierta falta. Lo tachan de reaccionario. infame: 1. adj. Que carece de honra, crédito y estimación. U. t. c. s. 2. adj. Muy malo y vil en su especie. Aunque no me convence del todo, podría ser el camino hacia la solución perfecta. |
