I don't have my dictionary on me in order to type out a definition. But it's a cool word. I like double meanings, when words can mean two things, good and bad, and it creates ambivalence. When one says "
Picture a wedding dress 5 years old stained with wine. It was a wonderful day save the wine spill, due to a small tiff, small but unresolved. But 5 years later the wedding picture without the wine still hangs in the living room. And the beautiful bride 5 years later still looks at that and smiles and then remembers the wine. That's ambivalence.
look it up, in a thesaurus, I love thesauri
It's a great word. Try it in dialogue.
