Word- Ostensible
Source- Politico.com
How it was used- The ostensible topic of the evening was foreign policy, which was defined elastically enough by moderator Jim Lehrer that the financial crisis dominated the first half of the debate.
Definition- –adjective
1. outwardly appearing as such; professed; pretended: an ostensible cheerfulness concealing sadness.
2. apparent, evident, or conspicuous: the ostensible truth of their theories.
I saw the ostensible look on her face after she ran into a pole in front of the entire school.
