arrogances
Multiple haughty attitudes
Arrogances is the plural of arrogance, referring to multiple instances or displays of excessive self-importance.
The plural is uncommon because arrogance typically functions as an abstract quality rather than countable acts: His many arrogances alienated colleagues.
More often, speakers use phrases like "acts of arrogance" or "arrogant behaviors."
