halp meh wif homeworkz.

Post by Doron »

Ok, so for my english class, my teacher wants us to make a wordlist of at least 70 words with words that we could come across in a conversation which we don't know.

Buuut, here's the case, I have got a big vocabulary, and they only accept words that people will actually USE in a normal conversation, but I can't think of more then about, 21, with some hard words I never heard of, but now my teacher is bitching that those words are too hard.. so now I need YOUR help in giving me a word which you think is hard in a normal conversation, of which you also have to think what it is when you hear it.

Is it that hard to grab a dictionary and pick out big words you don't understand?

Tell them you don't know anymore words that you wouldn't know in a normal convo and that's it. It's not your fault you know most words >.< He should be happy about it.

this is why english as a subject is idiotic. What is the teacher's definition of a "normal conversation"? Is there any objective way to grade a students' 70 words that may or may not be "normally used"? How "normal" can a conversation get until it is "unnormal"? What if discussing chondrules on a meteorite is a "normal" subject among NASA scientists?

ah, thanks, even though I know most of the words you gave already, prolly the other dumbasses who aren't in engrish daily won't know them so yay. that'll ad up to... 40 -.-...

and no Wout, I am not kidding about this shit, that damn goat I have for English also gave us an assignment to keep a logbook on how much english we speak daily. damn him, this is going to be the most boring log in history, as everyday is the same. I listen to my english music on the way to school, speak some sentences english with classmates, (only one is good enough for a proper conversation, the rest just plain sucks. they **** up grammar and shit) my cellphone is set to english, I'm on SRF, youtube and hyves, which I also set to english, and I listen to my english music on the way back home.

damn the old fool.

And you take it that way? I'm asking the real english people to give me a hand with my engrish homeworkz.

Just look around. There's plenty from this thread:

solitary (your sig: "Nobody deserves to be alone...")
veteran (from "Veteran Member")
jab (poehalcho's location "Shaolin Fingerjab!")
strumpet (Dom's Slut)
anachronistic (inky's Chrono Cross sig)
behemoth (XMoshe's sig: "DO NOT QUESTION THE BEHEMOTH")
nincompoop (=Jstar1)
countenance (CeLL's sig: "... ignorance sharpens my countenance.")
lax (X-Lax)
dystopia (Dystopia :P)

Then there's Google. Found this: http://quizlet.com/221081/100-smart-words-flash-cards/ and http://www.esldesk.com/vocabulary/smart-words

Elaborate
Eloquent (fits in nicely for the assignment)

Damn it's actually hard to think of 'hard' words when you're forced to. Oh well I guess that's two more.
