名詞

fogeydom (uncountable)

1. The state of being a fogey.
   • 2012, Greig, Andrew, “Paths to Enlightenment”, in Literary Review, number 399:

     The latent fogeydom never goes away entirely: contemporary or modern architecture, derided as ‘childish’, ‘infantile’ or plain ‘ugly’, is consistently and erroneously elided with postwar cheap tower-block brutalism and the destruction of town centres.
