Susan became unhappy when a talking head on TV used the term "discontentment." Why not say "discontent"?
Experts sometimes split hairs attempting to develop a slight difference between the two words. I think the two words mean the same thing: (not) content.
I'm fearless when it comes to agreeing with my wife and Shakespeare, who did not write: "Now is the winter of our discontentment."
