Ambiguous

Can we use word "ambiguous" for a person? Like he is an ambiguous and confused person.
  

Top answer

Hi Yes, you can. Although people are sometimes said to be ambiguous in how they use language, ambiguity is, strictly speaking, a property of linguistic expressions. A word, phrase, or sentence is ambiguous if it has more than one meaning.
