PROP., offendiculum (only in Plin., Ep., 9, 11, 1; not to be adopted): offensio (Cic.).
Figuratively, offensio: impedimentum (Cic.): mora (Terentianus, Liv.): quod offensioni est alicui: quod aliquem offendit. If = “bad example,” exemplum malum, perniciosum. To cast a stumbling-block in anybody’s way, in offensionem alicujus incurrere, cadere; by bad example, malo exemplo aliquem offendere; turpi vita alicui esse offensionis.
