- adjectiverestive (adjective)
- (of a person) unable to keep still or silent and becoming increasingly difficult to control, especially because of impatience, dissatisfaction, or boredom:"the crowd had been waiting for hours and many were becoming restive" · "he reiterated his determination to hold the restive republics together"
- (of a horse) refusing to advance, stubbornly standing still or moving backward or sideways:"both their horses became restive at once"
Originlate Middle English (as restif): from Old French restif, -ive, from Latin restare ‘remain’. The original sense, ‘inclined to remain still’, has undergone a reversal; the association with the stubborn behavior of a horse gave rise to the current sense ‘restless’.Similar and Opposite Wordsadjective
