Re: "snark," have you considered that the entire lexicon of "sn-" English words is hateful? I realized this when I learned the Bosnian word for daughter-in-law (a fraught social position!) was "snaha." Then I went through all "sn-" English words. There are a few exceptions, like snow and snack. But snicker? Sneer? Snort? Snip? Snore? The list is endless!
