The blunt is final.
Sharp is an adjective that is used to describe someone or that which cuts . The verb tajar , for its part, refers to making a cut with some type of tool, instrument or weapon.
The most common use of blunt, however, is associated with what is categorical, definitive, undeniable or definitive . For example: “The Minister of Economy was blunt and ruled out a new devaluation in the short term,” “The man, bluntly, assured that there was no way he would give his daughter permission to attend the dance,” “The company "was blunt in the face of consumer complaints."
Examples of something sharp
Suppose there is a rumor about the resignation of a club president. Several newspapers and magazines publish information about it, citing different sources. However, when offering a press conference, the manager expresses: “I want to categorically deny that I am going to resign. There is no possibility of me leaving the club before the end of my term. I have an assumed commitment that I will not break for anything in the world.” Given these words, journalists can refer to a categorical denial by the president of the institution.
On the other hand, if the same manager had said “For now I am not going to make statements about it, I am analyzing the situation and I am going to make the best decision for the club. In the coming days I will have news to announce” , it could not be said that this is a clear definition of the president , since it leaves many doors open. The blunt is always conclusive and explicit.
Who is blunt leaves no room for doubt.
A type of political stance
In recent years in Spain the term that concerns us now has been used frequently. Specifically, it has been used within the field of politics to refer to the position of certain party leaders who have shown themselves absolutely reluctant to reach agreements with other parliamentary groups, which has resulted in them having to repeat the general elections.
Thus, for example, we can state that Pablo Iglesias, who was the leader of Podemos, adopted a blunt stance when it came to stating that he had no intention of reaching an agreement with the Ciudadanos group in order to get Pedro Sánchez, leader of the PSOE, could become President of Congress.
A blunt and absolutely negative position that Sánchez himself has later expressed and established to prevent Mariano Rajoy, leader of the PP, from becoming president basically due to the alleged cases of corruption that have taken place within his group.
Sharp parents
To all of the above we can add that many parents make the decision to maintain a really blunt position with respect to their children to prevent them from questioning the decisions they make regarding going out times with friends or the rules. that must be fulfilled at home.
Specifically, they choose to be firm and blunt because they consider that this is the way for minors to respect and comply with their measures, thus avoiding conflicts.
