What do you call a classmate who won't change their mind, even when everyone gives good reasons? The word is pervicacious, pronounced per-vi-cay-shuhs: extremely stubborn, holding to an opinion or decision despite reason or opposition. In a classroom disagreement, picture someone sticking with their choice after classmates offer advice, making compromise hard. It's not just having a different opinion. It's refusing to budge despite reasons. That classmate is pervicacious.
