feigned englanniksi
Being a pretense, a counterfeit, or something false or fraudulent.
1641 (posth.), (w). ''Discoveries Made upon Men and Matters'', "Mores aulici":
- I have discovered that a feigned familiarity in great ones is a note of certain usurpation on the less. For great and popular men feign themselves to be servants to others to make those slaves to them. So the fisher provides bait for the trout, roach, dace, &c., that they may be food to him.
