Here are 15 definitions for the word BADIOUS shared exactly as I received them, but only one is correct. Please send your votes by responding to the Dixonary group with what you believe are two definitions most likely to have come from a dictionary before the deadline, which is TUESDAY, JULY 22, 2025, at 10 a.m. Eastern Time or the corresponding time where you live! https://www.timeanddate.com Any misspellings, weird spacing, etc., are my fault and not an indication of the accuracy of a particular definition.

 

Good luck!

Judy Madnick
