quote:
de·ri·sion (d-rzhn) n.

1. Contemptuous or jeering laughter; ridicule.

2. The act of deriding, or the state of being derided; mockery; scornful or contemptuous treatment which holds one up to ridicule.

[Middle English derisioun, from Anglo-Norman, from Late Latin drsi, drsin-, from Latin drsus, past participle of drdre, to deride. See deride.]
