Ryan’s Word Of The Day: Slammed (verb)

Meaning: Criticized

Example (1): “In a recent football match between England and Bulgaria the Bulgarian fans were slammed for racist chanting. However the punishment didn’t fit the crime as they were only fined. I feel that stricter penalties need to be implemented to eradicate this behavior.”

Example (2): “This week the US government were slammed for changing their stance on Israeli settlements, which is likely to increase long running tensions between Israelis and Palestinians.”

See ya!
