donnish

I thought that he was affecting the poet, and in me he found a donnish affectation of the British sportsman.

He had known dons at Oxford, and placed Lady Latimer in the donnish caste: that was all.

Sheffield said he liked people to be natural, and hated that donnish manner.

I do not know whether I am donnish with him, or if I bullied him too much when he was little; but he is always counter to me.
