1. 1

    A discourtesy is an action or a way of behaving that is not polite and does not show respect. The word can name one act (a discourtesy) or the general quality (discourtesy). Please forgive this discourtesy is the sort of sentence it lives in — stiff, polite, a little old. Though actually, in daily English people say , or they name the act: he didn’t say thank you. You will meet discourtesy in formal apologies, customer-service letters, and older books. It is a noun, not a verb: we do not ‘discourtesy’ someone.
