This week’s obscure English word is innoxious. It means something harmful. And it’s the antonym of a much more common word, innocuous.
Your challenge: write a sentence or two in the comments using this word.

The obscure word of the week is innoxious
Innoxious fumes sounds like the fumes are harmless, just like “inflammable” was interpreted by some as “not flammable.” So what are noxious fumes? Is “noxious” similar to “flammable?” (Aargh, now I’m thoroughly muddled!)
