Interesting, my dictionary says: > chas·tise > /ˈCHasˌtīz,ˌCHaˈstīz/ > verb > rebuke or reprimand severely. > "he chastised his colleagues for their laziness" I disagree with what you said about "judging" as it pertains to how you interpret what I said, but I don't have anything to further clarify for you.
