About This Quote

The word cacophonous means, “making or sounding like a cacophony.” It describes the loud and chaotic sounds of dinner. The dinner table is supposed to be a place of peace and nourishment. However, when people come together for important occasions, they often overdo it with the food. These types of dinners are usually chaotic affairs, filled with noisy conversations and loud clinking silverware.
