ACHARIS, is a Greek word1, which signifies in general an ungrateful, uncivil, troublesome, or impertinent Man, Eccluf. xx. 21. Homo acharis quasi fabula vana in ore indisciplinatorum assidua erit; the unbred, impertinent, and troublesome Man is as tiresome as the insipid buffoonries of ignorant and mean People.
