Corybantish

/ˌkɔːrɪˈbæntɪʃ/ adjective

Definition

Somewhat like or vaguely resembling the wild, uncontrolled behavior or style of the Corybants.

Etymology

Formed from 'corybant' with the suffix '-ish,' which typically indicates approximation or a somewhat diluted version of the quality. This informal adjective form developed in English for casual description of moderately wild behavior.

Kelly Says

While 'corybantine' is the serious, scholarly adjective, 'corybantish' is the casual one—calling someone's dancing 'corybantish' is like saying 'kinda wild but not totally nuts,' versus 'true corybantiasm' for completely unhinged behavior!
