1. Does the term 'bad-meaning' exist in English, No and is it commonly used?

For instance, does it make sense No to say:

"There are some bad-meaning people who could ~~misterpreted~~ misinterpret you."

I would just call them 'bad people' or 'trouble-makers'.

2. And does the word 'spirituous' exist in English? No.

And how about 'spirited'? Yes. This means animated, lively, brave.

And how would you use that/those terms? Could you please build a sentence as an example?eg Only experienced riders should get on that horse. It's a very spirited animal. Or do you mean the word 'spiritual', which usually involves religion and the human soul? Clive
