Vulgarity/ haughtiness/ rudeness

Rude behavior. Insolence or behavior that is not in accordance with proper conduct. Or: arrogance (in the source: lack of sensitivity or absence of emotional intelligence).

(Because of four things the property of household owners goes into concealment: concerning oppressors of hired workers, and concerning extortioners of hired workers, and concerning those who remove the load from upon their necks and give it to their companions, and concerning haughtiness, and haughtiness is opposed to all — Sukkah 29b. And likewise: 'There was a thief and she behaved toward me with haughtiness... because she despises me' — Agnon, 'Ad Hena', 127.)
