ORANGE DAY

COLLEGE ENGLISH

TOday in class we went over the paper topic (see LAST TUESDAY'S blog for the assignment) that is due on Wednesday. Come see me with questions!

We began talking about our vocab or the year, and how we will go about doing vocab. We had a discussion about CONNOTATION and DENOTATION and how that will affect our study of vocab.

Then we took down our first vocab list. This test will be on FRIDAY (tentatively...it may be changed due to the film)

The words were....

indigent
burnished
scintillate
gesticulation
effluvium
fumitory
gambol
raiment
compeer
carte blanche
laissez faire
carpe diem
busman's holiday
ardor
commove
doughty
consternate
prosaic

Thanks!
