Here’s a collection of words that can be quite confusing.
Just don’t call your friend’s new place specious when you meant spacious!
Spurious - of a deceitful or false origin. Often used in the
phrase, “of spurious birth,” which although might be redundant, I’m sure
someone thought was a kinder way to say “we don’t know who the father is.”
Specious - attractively deceptive; what looks genuine.
Spacious - roomy and expansive.
