How to use "Chicanery" in context?
There's a certain word that gets thrown around a lot these days and it has a negative connotation - chicanery. But what is chicanery, exactly? Webster's Dictionary defines it as "the subtle practice of using dubious or dishonest methods to advance one's interests." This can mean anything from pulling the wool over someone's eyes to lying about oneself to misleading someone. It can be carried out in a deliberate or accidental way, and can be employed to achieve a desired outcome. In business, chicanery can mean engaging in any number of tricks to get an advantage over your competition.
