0 When I read "hasty", as in a hasty decision, I have the feeling that s/he's going to regret it later. In other words, "hasty" sounds more negative than "rash" to me, can someone tell me whether I'm wrong? 0-

00Hasty means something is done very quickly, perhaps not as well as it should be, but it could be ok, or it could be a disaster. It need not apply to a decision, it could apply to physical actions. 02br

00Rash means that it is a rushed and poor decision. It does not apply to physical actions. 02br
