What is meant by ominous silence? |
|
Answer» Ominous, and the RELATED word omen both come from the 16th century LATIN word ōmen "foreboding." However, UNLIKE omen, which is a sign of something good or bad to come,ominous always describes something unpleasant or threatening. If the future looks ominous, you've GOT nothing to look forward to. |
