#9: Cute

The Definition:

cute : attractive or pretty especially in a childish, youthful, or delicate way

Editor's Note:

"Cute is one of those you-know-it-when-you-see-it ideas, but tough to explain. This definition explains it clearly, and offers a useful distinction between the 'childish,' 'youthful,' and 'delicate' kinds of cute."
