How to use "Impetuous" in context?
There is a big difference between impetuous and rash. Impetuous individuals are acting without thinking through the consequences of their actions. Rashes are red, itchy welts that form when the skin is irritated. Impetuous people might make decisions quickly without taking the time to consider all of the possible outcomes. rash people are more likely to experience an allergic reaction to a particular stimulus. Impetuous people also tend to be less risk-aware and are more likely to take risks than prudish people.
