Someone daring dares to carry out risky activities.
Bold is an adjective that is linked to the verb dare : to dare to do something risky or perform an insolent action. The notion can be applied to people, acts or situations.
Before moving forward it is important to determine the etymological origin of the term. We have to explain that it comes from the verb dare, which emanates from the Latin attribuere (translatable as "do something without any type of fear" ). This word is formed from the sum of several components:
- The prefix ad- , which means "towards" .
- The noun tribes .
- The suffix -er , which is an ending used to form verbs.
Bold concept
Daring, therefore, is he who dares . For example : «That young man is daring! He told me that he would like to spend the night with me" , "The journalist, bold, consulted the singer about the rumors of infidelity" , "The team needs a daring striker, who is not afraid to face rivals and who always asks for the ball." » .
Many times, an individual is indicated as daring when he or she is impertinent or does not feel ashamed when doing or saying things that make most people embarrassed. If a teenager tells a woman that "she is too old to dance," he can be classified as daring. The same can be said about a young woman who wears a transparent dress and is not wearing underwear.
Daring individuals face danger.
Fearlessness or bravery
In other contexts, daring is associated with bravery , courage or intrepidity . A daring writer can publish a novel where he reflects on a taboo topic that the rest of the authors prefer to avoid so as not to receive criticism on a social level. A daring basketball player, for his part, does not hesitate to shoot the basket or try to score points beyond the efforts of the defenders, unlike other players who always prefer to pass the ball to their teammates.
A scene from a movie, a photographic production, a speech, a soccer team and a pair of pants, among many other things, can be classified as daring.

It is established that when someone wants to be daring, they must begin by taking the following steps:

- It is important that you focus on knowing yourself better. That is, you have to start knowing what your strengths are and also your weaknesses.
- No less relevant is that you must learn to say "no" .

- It is important that, to the extent possible, you do not hesitate to take risks.
