How to use "Charlatan" in context?
A charlatan is someone who deliberately deceives other people for personal gain. They may use a variety of tricks, lies, or schemes to take advantage of people.
Charlatans can be dangerous because they can lead people into scams or deceiving situations. They can scam people out of money, hurt their feelings, or even deceive them into thinking they have special skills or powers.
The negative connotation of the term "charlatan" is partly due to the fact that charlatans have been known to victimize people in their own country as well as in other countries.
