A couple more words that I have read lately but wasn't too sure of their
meanings.

Riposte - my guess was something to do with eating a meal.

Riposte = a quick and clever remark, often made in answer to a
criticism

Completely wrong with that one!

Mendacious - I have no idea what that means.

Mendacious = not telling the truth
(https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/mendacious?q=Mendacious)

You live and learn :)
