Is this the correct usage of the word "fraught"?

MySpace is fraught with users sending friend requests to people they don't even know.


Solution 1:

Yes, it is correct here. If something is fraught with x, it is full of x. This x is usually a bad thing, and there is a lot of it. Here are a few xamples:

  • The journey was fraught with peril.
  • You failed the test because your answers were fraught with grammar mistakes.
