Pronunciation: /sak-ruh-fish-ul-wiyn/

Sentence: Delilah was a tall, blond, blue-eyed beauty, and secretly, Christina couldn't stand her. It wasn't really Delilah's attractiveness that she hated ― it was more because she seemed to take it all for granted. She would complain about any slight percieved imperfection to anyone kind enough to listen, and sacrificialwhine on and on about things like 'having a bad-hair-day' and that she was going to have to cancel her date because of it. Christina would have just been glad to have a date at all... She just sighed to herself and pretended to nod sympathetically as Delilah now went on about how she couldn't find a bra to properly show off her considerable cleavage with her new dress.

Etymology: blend of, Sacrificial wine - wine used in various religions as a holy offering (from Latin, sacrificium "sacred rite" & vinum "of the vine") + Whine - (Old English, hwinan "to whistle through the air"; like the sound of many arrows)
