Antilocution

Antilocution is a fancy word that means using words or phrases to talk bad about someone. It's like saying mean things about someone without actually saying them out loud. For example, if someone is talking about a friend who is sick and then rolls their eyes, that could be an example of antilocution. It's important to remember that even if you are not saying mean things, you can still be hurting someone's feelings.
