Is there a word that sounds like *encourable* that means *at the risk of sound offensive*?

thanks

Hm, that's a tough one. Do you have a sentence or two for some context?

I was with a close girl friend of mine, I was just teasing her with words and she brought up that word. i'm pretty sure it wasn't "horrible" it sounded more like*encourable*.
thanks, CP
PS. What does CP stand for?

[CP]

I don't know of any word that sounds like "encourable" and means anything like "at the risk of sounding offensive."

I wonder if she said, "You're incorrigible." That would mean, "You're unruly / unmanageable / impossible to keep in line / impossible to correct."

If you were kidding around with her, she might say something like that to you.

Otherwise, I suggest that you ask whether she can remember what she said. Interrogate her!
