retorta quick reply to a question or remark (especially a witty or critical one)
What's a retort? It's a reply that's short. "Why did the monkey fall out of the tree; please give me a report?" I said "The monkey's dead," with a dry retort.
Today retort is used as both a noun and a verb, and both come from 16th- and 17th-century sources meaning "to twist, turn back." A retort is a comeback or a quick and clever answer or remark. It can be a form of payback when someone tries to insult or tease another person, and often, a perfect retort doesn't occur to you till later, when you think "Oh! I wish I had said that earlier!"
