Let's build our vocabulary #1 (permalink) Wed Aug 05, 2009 21:47 pm   Let's build our vocabulary
 

Hi friends,
Let’s build our vocabulary though a game. One person will post a word and others will answer either parallel word or opposite word. And try to provide simple meaning of word you are posting and if possible use it sentence.

Let me start with word

Excitement
Every moment during competition was full of excitement.

Suggest parallel word or opposite word or new word.

Guys Mad ,
Be creative, Use unfamiliar words. Mad
This game is to get used to unfamiliar words and understand meaning of it and use it our sentence.

Let me start again

Word: Habitat
Meaning/synonyms: Home, dwelling, house, domicile
Sentence: We need to protect wetlands because they are habitats (home) for many endanger species.

Icy, I know just few words I´m not familar with. I mean, as soon as I know a word I´m not familar with, the first step is done, isn´t it? But nonetheless here is one:

ambiguity

The same is for the ambiguity of words. It suggests itself to mean on the one hand two or more senses of itself which is countable but on the other hand also unsureness, uncertainity, uncertainness, tantativeness, shakiness, insecurity................................(uncountable), doesn´t it?

see you soon
