wasp

solitary wasp

A type of wasp that does not live in a social colony. My sister is an entomologist currently studying the behavior of solitary wasps.

1. n. a white Anglo-Saxon protestant. (Usually derogatory. Acronym.) Would you call Pete a WASP?

2. mod. having to do with white Anglo-Saxon protestants; waspish. What a silly old WASP idea.
