Chutzpah is a Hebrew word used to described someone who has overstepped the boundaries of accepted behavior with no shame.

Similar English words are: audacity, impertinence, and insolence.

It can express admiration (for non-conformance) or be used derogitorily to express disdain for their arrogance.

Slang for the same word would be "ballsy"

Used in a sentence:

"He had a lot of Chutzpah to wear a cowboy hat to a funeral"
