Word of the Day

Finicky describes someone who is very hard to please, or something that requires a lot of care, precision, or attentive effort.

Although she was a finicky eater as a child, she grew up to become a world-renowned chef famous for her encyclopedic knowledge of global ingredients.

The latest game in the series boasts amazing graphics, but the controls are a little finicky.
