Definition
Snarky: [adjective] snarkily [ adv.]
A witty mannerism, personality, or behavior that is a combination of sarcasm and cynicism. Usually accepted as a complimentary term.
Snark [ noun] is sometimes mistaken for a snotty or arrogant attitude.
Most dictionaries label snarky as "Chiefly British Slang." But for the last five or more years, it has become increasingly common in American publications, maybe ones infiltrated by British or Canadian writers and journalists.
