Думаю, для меня бы это было смешно и странно (потому что слово все-таки довольно устаревшее), но совсем не оскорбительно. (Конечно, всегда можно сказать с такой интонацией, чтобы было оскорбительно :) )Quote:

P.S. What preposition should I use with the word "cautious"? I've chosen "about", but I'm extremely unsure...
How about this: "...is often used to express mockery (or simply "is used mockingly"), so you have to be cautious with this word."Quote:

IMHO:
You might be able to say "you have to be at least cautious" but I would only use "you have to be at least x" where x is physical measurment.
"you have to be at least 20 years old" (or older)
"you have to be at least 170 cm tall" (or taller)
"you have to be at least 60kg in weight" (or heavier)
и.т.д.
"you have to be at least cautious" (or more cautious) - hmmmmm, maaaybeee.
In fact, now (among teenagers or young students or so) the word "барышня" is often used to express a mock, so you have to be at least cautious about this word (in a company of that kind).Quote:

Ho-ho, exactly! :)Quote:

You're welcome, Pranki :) . And you're right, Kwatts - dropping "at least" does sound better.
