laconic

A word derived from the region of Greece named Laconia, the capital city of which is Sparta. It means to speak in a concise way, as the Spartans often did.

Philip II of Macedon: "You are advised to submit without further delay, for if I bring my army into your land, I will destroy your farms, slay your people, and raze your city."

Sparta: "If."
