How do you use disparage in a sentence?

President Bush has many disparagers who criticize every aspect of his presidency.


Is a statement considered disparagement even if the statement is true?

That's a tricky one. At common law, truth was a defense to a charge of libel (written) or slander (spoken). States have rewritten the law, so something called "disparagement" may not be subject to a defense of truth. As corporations dominate our legislatures and congress, disparagement frequently turns not on truth but on whether you intended to hurt the person or business. (And succeeded, since harm is usually still a requirement).

What is the Meaning of ajeesh?

"ajeesh" doesn't have a meaning in English that I can find. "jeesh" is a word used by Orson Scott Card in his Ender's Game series, meaning group or army. It has taken on a life of its own, and it a fairly common slang word now among the techno-geek crowd (absolutely no disparagement intended... I am one of them myself), which takes to Science Fiction traditionally. It still means group or army, but can also mean group of friends... compatriots... that sort of meaning. You can hang with your jeesh. It still retains some of the us-against-the-man feeling that it had in Ender's Game.
