The term "flippant" is often used in literature to characterize speech or behavior that is deliberately light, dismissive, and lightly irreverent—even when addressing serious matters. Authors employ it to signal a tone that shuns gravity in favor of quick wit or casual insolence, whether through a character's offhand remark ([1], [2], [3]) or as a critique of a superficial manner of expression in social and political discourse ([4], [5], [6]). In some works, the word conveys an air of playful mockery, suggesting that a seemingly carefree attitude masks a deeper impudence ([7], [8], [9]), while in others it underlines a criticism of triviality in contexts that might otherwise demand solemnity ([10], [11]). Overall, "flippant" serves as a nuanced descriptor that enriches character interplay and narrative tone across a spectrum of literary styles ([12], [13], [14]).
