PSA: Wary, Weary, Leery

Published on 2025-1-31

I know you thought you wouldn’t hear from me this month but I figured I’d swoop in before February and talk about something I think about often.

Here are a few words that I frequently hear confused and their meanings:

Wary: This means you’re feeling cautious or skeptical.

Weary: This means you’re tired.

Leery: This means wary.

Bonus:

Leer: To stare at someone in an unpleasant or lascivious way.

So now you know! See you in February!
