Vocabulary Assignment

As we discussed in class today, one of your assignments each week will be to study twenty vocabulary words. Each week you will need to write a short essay or story or poem (or any other piece of writing you like) that incorporates at least fifteen of those words. The meaning of the words you use must be clear from their use in context. You can turn these essays in to me in class or via e-mail. You can access the vocabulary lists for each week here or consult the hand-out I gave you today.

As a reminder, this week's words are the following:


ambivalent
audacious
belittle
capricious
craven
digress
eclectic
euphonious
indolent
intractable
irascible
jocund
loquacious
maudlin
narcissism
neophyte
ominous
profane
surreptitious
sycophant
