vagary

vagary\VAY-guh-ree; vuh-GER-ee\ , noun:

1.An extravagant, erratic, or unpredictable notion, action, or occurrence.



I used the plural of vagary in a recent post, but had to go look it up to make sure I was spelling it correctly. I've heard it used before, but the pronunciation was "vagarity", which isn't even a word...unless it's a cross between vagary and vulgarity.

"That *&%$#&* sure is unpredictable!"
