[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually think peripatetic can have a slightly negative connotation, and I say this as someone who is familiar with the word because I had a very peripatetic upbringing! Ie, nomadic, rootless, lacking community, etc. I would not be so certain your colleague misunderstands the word; he might just have negative associations with the description, some seemingly shared by some of the PPs here![/quote] OP here. I agree that it can have negative connotations, but, the funny thing is, the context in the email was that I was referring to some cool places we’d gone to while on our travels. I hadn’t said anything negative about that time, so that was why I thought it was odd when the person replied that they were so sorry that my life had been so difficult. [/quote]
