shrewd
adj 1: marked by practical hardheaded intelligence; "a smart
businessman"; "an astute tenant always reads the small
print in a lease"; "he was too shrewd to go along with
them on a road that could lead only to their overthrow"
[synonym: {astute}, {sharp}, {shrewd}]
2: used of persons; "the most calculating and selfish men in the
community" [synonym: {calculating}, {calculative}, {conniving},
{scheming}, {shrewd}]

Shrewd \Shrewd\, a. [Compar. {Shrewder}; superl. {Shrewdest}.]
[Originally the p. p. of shrew, v.t.]
1. Inclining to shrew; disposing to curse or scold; hence,
vicious; malicious; evil; wicked; mischievous; vexatious;
rough; unfair; shrewish. [Obs.] --Chaucer.
[1913 Webster]

[Egypt] hath many shrewd havens, because of the
great rocks that ben strong and dangerous to pass
by. --Sir J.
Mandeville.
[1913 Webster]

Every of this happy number
That have endured shrewd days and nights with us.
--Shak.
[1913 Webster]

2. Artful; wily; cunning; arch.
[1913 Webster]

These women are shrewd tempters with their tongues.
--Shak.
[1913 Webster]

3. Able or clever in practical affairs; sharp in business;
astute; sharp-witted; sagacious; keen; as, a shrewd
observer; a shrewd design; a shrewd reply.
[1913 Webster]

Professing to despise the ill opinion of mankind
creates a shrewd suspicion that we have deserved it.
--Secker.
[1913 Webster]

Syn: Keen; critical; subtle; artful; astute; sagacious;
discerning; acute; penetrating.

Usage: {Shrewd}, {Sagacious}. One who is shrewd is keen to
detect errors, to penetrate disguises, to foresee and
guard against the selfishness of others. Shrewd is a
word of less dignity than sagacious, which implies a
comprehensive as well as penetrating mind, whereas
shrewd does not.
[1913 Webster] -- {Shrewd"ly}, adv. -- {Shrewd"ness},
n.
[1913 Webster]
