Obduracy: Stubbornness, Persistance.
stubbornness… my mind is showing ‘obduracy’ by not telling me what to write. This is a self explanatory word. It is not to hard to pronounce either ob-dur-a-cy. Say a word out loud a few times and it helps you remember. It is funny, all these words are just substitutes for saying something like “that person is stubborn” (Obduracy) or “that horse just attempted to get its rider off” (Estrapade), instead of saying “that person is showing obduracy” or “that horse just attempted an estrapade”.
