Pronunciation: cast-eh-cuv-eh-tay-vee-an

Sentence: Beer goggles can explain why some people hook up, but for others, it is purely castecovetavian. Milo, the heir to the Johnson Tools fortune and his trophy wife Svetlana were an oddly matched couple. He met her as a waitress in a drive-in restaurant gave her his phone number. He was in his mid 30's and never dated. Some thought her attraction had to be because of his endowment, but those who knew him better said it was because of his, uh, personality.

Etymology: Caste (social group consisting of people of the same rank) + covet (to crave) + avi(bird, as in flying high)+ian (one who is)

Beer goggles is a great expression ... I will use it often. Your word captures the essence of people who set their sights for more! Unique! - silveryaspen, 2008-03-17: 13:19:00
