glaring: a flagrant error. I still content that not all "intentional" fouls are flagrant - nor shoud they be described that way. As has been stated before, not all flagrant fouls are intentional either.

You might be better off learning the rule book definitions and what they mean, and forget completely about what the dictionary states. All you're doing is confusing yourself.
Intentional fouls are
never flagrant fouls, by NFHS and NCAA rules definition. Ever. Similarly, flagrant fouls are
never intentional fouls either. The "act" itself may be either intentional or not in nature in both types of fouls, but that is not a criteria that is needed for either.
