Crossword Genius

Bishop, impetuous and loud (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

brash

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'loud' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'bishop impetuous' is the wordplay.
'bishop' becomes 'B' (abbreviation for bishop in chess).
'impetuous' becomes 'rash' (I've seen this before).
'b'+'rash'='BRASH'

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for brash that I've seen before include "Tasteless; rudely confident" , "forward" , "Loud and rude" , "Cocksure" , "Impertinent" .)
