To beguile is to trick someone, either with deception or with irresistible charm and beauty.
You could be beguiled by a super model or by a super con artist.

Beguile doesn't always mean that the person or thing beguiling is tricking you, but there is a
sense with this word of enchantment(জা্ুভুগ্ধ কযা) that takes away the viewer's normal
powers of judgment. A beautiful place or idea can beguile as easily as a person. You might be
so beguiled by the idea of a picnic on the beach that you forgot there are two feet of snow on
the ground.

over and over what everyone already knows. Belaboring can be a physical attack as well. A
person can belabor or beat the living daylights out of you with a club.

split the word bemused into be + amused, when u are amused you are in a state of surprise or
confusion

If you're bemused, you're muddled তা঱রগা঱ পাকান or preoccupied (আচ্ছন্ন). It happens when
you're lost in thought, dazed (঴ত্ফুরদ্ধ কযা), or overwhelmed (say, on the first day of high
school).

Find the word "muse" inside bemused and imagine being under the spell of one of the muses
of Greek mythology. You're so inspired to write poetry that you can't keep your mind on
work or remember how to get home. Or think Wile E. Coyote, Sylvester, or another cartoon
character staggering (রফস্ময়কয) off with a vague smile after getting hit over the head by a
frying pan and you'll grasp the meaning of a bemused expression.

poetry, you are good at it.

The noun bent can also refer to a strong inclination প্রবৃডত্ত, অনুরডক্ত to react to something in a
specific manner. If you have a strong scientific bent, you won't be inclined to believe reports

someone very determined, and in this case, the word is usually followed by "on." You may be

something bland. People still use bland to mean pleasant and tranquil (প্র঱ান্ত), but it more
often has a negative connotation. Use it to describe plain old oatmeal (a grass-like cereal
plant, or its seeds which are used in baking and cooking and also to feed animals) before
you’ve added brown sugar and berries to it, or to depict (রচত্র ফণদন কযা) the forgettable,

If you belong to a chastity club, you might have to take a pledge (অেীকায) to be chaste until
marriage. Chaste can be defined as "pure and virtuous (ধাচভব ক)," but basically it means
"not having sex."

This word is related to the Latin source of the verb castrate "to remove a man's testicles," so it's
definitely related to sex. And chaste is from the same Latin source as the noun caste "a
Hindu social class separated from other classes." So the word chaste means no sex, and the
word caste means pure and virtuous.

A cipher is the numeral zero or someone without influence or importance. Don't vote
your popular classmate to be the student council leader if he or she is actually a cipher,
someone who can't do the job effectively.

Cipher comes from the Arabic sifr meaning "nothing" or "zero" and came to Europe as a
word along with the Arabic numeral system. As early codes substituted numerals for letters
to hide the word’s meaning, codes became known as ciphers. If you crack a cipher, you break
the code enabling you to understand the message. An encoded message is also called a
cipher. Send one to your friend if you don't want anyone to know what you're saying!

at your empty plate, saying "More cake sure would be nice," then you're being circuitous. And

usually in an unwilling way and often in the context(প্র঴ঙ্গ,কথাপ্র঴ঙ্গ) of a competition, as in "At
midnight, the candidate finally conceded defeat."

In its most common senses, a near synonym of concede is acknowledge স্বীকার করা ––if your mom
is pointing out that you need sleep before the test, you should concede the truth of what she's
saying. But another meaning of concede is to give away or grant something: The leaders are not
ready to concede power. Concede is from Latin concēdere, from the prefix com- "completely" plus
cēdere, "to go along, grant, yield." The corresponding noun is concession (রকছু ঳ুরফধা শ্ওয়া).

mental state (in this case, fatigue ক্লাডন্ত,অব঴াে).

Contagion can apply not only to the spread of emotions but also to the spread of disease. If
you’re feeling sick, you should stay home to reduce the risk of contagion. (Be sure to use the
word contagion when you call in sick; it’s a great opportunity to impress people with your
vocabulary.) Contagion is akin(একজাতীয়,঴রগাত্র্,ররক্তর ঴ম্পকজ যুক্ত, ররক্তর ঴ম্পকজ যুক্ত) to the word
contagious, an adjective describing things that spread from person to person, like certain

A conviction is something certain: a judgment of guilty in court and a strong belief are both
convictions.

In the legal world, when a judge or jury convicts someone of a crime — finding them guilty
— this is called a conviction. Prosecutors (a legal representative who officially accuses
someone of committing a crime, especially in a court of law) try to get convictions, and
defense attorneys try to prevent them. Also, convictions are beliefs — principles. The
United States was founded on many convictions, such as the belief in free speech and
separation of church and state.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for cull

96 | P a g e
If you CALL you take it; if you cull you reject it.

To cull means to select or gather. If you decide to make a literary anthology, you must cull the
best possible stories and then arrange them in a pleasing manner.

When you use cull as a verb, the things you gather can be the good or bad ones from a group. In
your garden, you can cull the good vegetables for dinner, or the rotten ones for the compost pile.
In fact, often no judgment of quality is made, as when you cull information from the Internet for
your next research project. However, if you use the word as a noun, a cull is a selection of things
you intend to reject, often in reference to a group of animals. An outbreak (প্রা্ুবদাফ) of a disease
such as foot-and-mouth disease can cause authorities to order a cull of farm pigs.

For something to be defiled, it first must be pure. You can't defile a garbage dump or a
messy(দনাংরা,অপডরষ্কার) room. Defile is often used in a religious context. If you 103

Defunct ভৃত, অরকরজা , চফরুপ্ত de·funct [di fúngkt]
dead; no longer in use or existence

 (adj.) no longer existing, living, or working correctly:

members of a now defunct communist organization. I think this kettle is defunct!

Defunct describes something that used to exist, but is now gone. A magazine that no
longer publishes, like Sassy, the girl-power mag from the '90s, is defunct, for example.

Although defunct comes from the Latin word defunctus meaning "dead," it's not usually
used to describe a person who's no longer with us, but rather institutions, projects,
companies and political parties — you know, the boring stuff. Keep digging and you'll
find that defunctus comes from defungi, meaning, "to finish," which is closer to how it's
used today. Defunct can also refer to a rule or law that's no longer used or has become
inactive, like prohibition.
Mnemonics for defunct

 (Tag: pun) de (means without) + funct(function)..so something without a functioning is


considered DEAD.

deluge — like when you've been given a deluge of homework over vacation: a dozen term
papers, two dozen books to read, and a mile-high stack প্রচু র পডরমাণ of math problems.

The noun deluge is an overwhelming amount of something in general, such as work,


people, or questions. Because of its Latin roots, however, in particular it means an
overwhelming amount of water. It comes from diluvian, which means flood. The verb
deluge similarly means to overwhelm or inundate প্লাডবত with something, particularly
water. The hurricane deluged the island with rain. A deluge isn't always a bad thing,
however. One thing most people would like to be deluged with? Money.

If you are a C student, and your guidance counselor tells you to apply to MIT and Harvard,
his advice may be delusive, or not based in fact, giving a false impression.

Your delusive hopes might tempt প্র঱ুব্ধ করা you to look away from reality, but if you believe
delusive statements, you are deluded (প্রত্াযণা কযা , শবারাকনা). What you believe in might
be called a delusion. All of these words come from the Latin deludere which means "to
play false, deceive." Also related to this word: Ludicrous (঴া঳যকয). When you fall for a
delusive idea, you are sometimes seen as ludicrous.

Delve েনন কযা , গবীযবারফ অনু঳ন্ধান কযা delve [delv]

Mnemonics for delve

 (Tag: ) Sounds like Dell. My Dell machine is crashed. Now I want to INVESTIGATE

history and discovered an inventor, a checkers champion, and a circus equestrian(দঘা়িা চ়িা
঴রঙ্গ ) in her ancestry (র঩ত্ৃ ঩ুরুলগণ).

Delve has a literal meaning of to dig into the earth ("to delve the soil," as in preparing a
garden, for example), but this sense is rare now. The verb is most often used in the more
figurative sense — like to delve into a problem or into someone's personal life.

sudden illegal, often violent, taking of government power), meaning a sudden act of
overthrowing (to remove someone from power, using force) of the government. Sometimes

Deposition and the related deposit get a lot of use. At first their meanings seem unrelated–

revolution overthrowing a king have in common? All three involve a process where
something (minerals, money, king) are being "put down."

different word that means "distinctive, different, various."

 The discussion devolved into a shouting match

You've probably heard about that organisms evolve(উদ্ভূত ঵ত্তয়া) over time. Well, life is
complicated, and sometimes things devolve instead — to devolve is to get worse instead
of better.

The de- in devolve is a clue to its meaning. When things devolve, they deteriorate,
degenerate, fall apart, go to the dogs, and generally end up worse. When a classroom gets
loud and rowdy (ব঴চচ঩ূণদ, উচ্ছৃঙ্খর), a teacher might say the class has devolved. There is
another, less negative, meaning of devolve. You can devolve responsibilities: for example,
the U.S. government could devolve a certain responsibility to the states. The non-negative
meaning of devolve is kind of like passing things on in a will. If I devolve something to
you, you inherit (উত্ত্যারধকাযী ঴ত্ত্য়া) it.

To be devout is to be deeply devoted to one's religion or to another belief, cause, or way of


life. If you're reading this, you're probably a devout believer in improving your vocabulary.

Devout is often used to describe religious individuals, but this word also pop ups (menu; in
computing, a list of choices that is shown on the screen when the user requests it) in the
context of sports fans — a fact that may shed some light on the role of sports in today's
society. However, while it's usually acceptable for a devout individual to miss work for
religious holidays, devout sports fans have a tougher(অনমনীয়,নারছা়িবান্দা,শ্রম঴ার্য) time
convincing their boss to let them off for the big game.

Definition
(noun) the termination or disintegration of a relationship (between persons or nations)

Synonyms : breakup

The dissolution of a relationship means that it's broken up or ended. The dissolution of
your band means you better get started on your solo album.

Dissolution comes from the Latin word dissolutio, meaning "a dissolving of something."
Dissolution looks very similar to "dissolve," so to help you remember the meaning, think
about what happens if you put paper in water — it breaks apart. A dissolution of a
marriage is the same thing as divorce. Although it sounds like disillusion(চক্ষু খুড঱য়া দেত্তয়া,
দমা঵মুডক্ত), if you try to use them interchangeably, your logic will fall apart.

Synonyms : disinvest , strip , undress

Example Sentence

 The nurse quickly undressed the accident victim


 She divested herself of her outdoor clothes
 He disinvested himself of his garments.

Whatever it is, when you divest something, you get rid of it.

Divest is sort of a fancy way to say ―dispose of.‖ It’s often used in a business context to
describe companies or governments that divest some of their holdings by selling them off.
It can also be used in the sense of taking something away (remove) from someone. For
example if your boss becomes insane (উন্঩া্) and power mad, his handlers (িীডার঱ক্ষক)
may divest him of his title, meaning his position is taken away from him.

Mnemonics for dote

 (Tag: ) when you go on a date what will u do u shower her/him with love ri8 so
dote=shower with love
 (Tag: english) I am very fond of dotted dogs called dalmations

If you dote on someone, you shower (ফলদণ কযা) them with love and attention. Sounds like
the life!

Parents that dote on their children too much might find themselves in trouble down the
road; all that unadulterated devotion is a surefire (certain or likely, especially to succeed)
way to spoil your kid. No wonder dote is related to a German word that means "to be
foolish." That connection might also explain the use of dote to mean acting senile
(ফাধদকয঳ুরব) in one's later years.

Definition
(verb) make a monotonous low dull sound
Example Sentence

 The harmonium was droning on

Definition
(verb) talk in a monotonous voice
Synonyms : drone on

A drone is a male bee whose only job — and only purpose in life — is to fertilize the
queen bee's eggs. That's why some workers who do their jobs robotically, not trying to
innovate but just get through each day, are sometimes, and negatively, called drones.

Drone can be a noun and a verb: it is both a low, monotonous sound, like the drone of a
boring teacher that makes students struggle to stay awake, and the act of making that
sound — that teacher drones on and on, never noticing that everyone is staring out the
window. Drone can also refer to a worker whose low level of ambition suggests he or she
will never rise through the ranks to become a top decision-maker at the company.

 ductile copper
 malleable metals such as gold

If you can bend or shape a substance, it is ductile. Play-Dough is ductile. Wooden blocks
are not.

If you follow what everyone else does or says, you too might be ductile, or easily
manipulated. Some more commonly used synonyms for ductile are malleable for both
senses of the word, and pliable and flexible for the literal sense. The word shares the same
root as the word, duke (঳্দ ায). If you are a duke, you hope that your people are ductile or
easy to lead.

The town hall is the only edifice surviving from the 15th century.

synonyms : building

 (noun) a system that has been established for a long time:

It looks as if the whole political edifice of the country is about to collapse.

Mnemonics for edifice

 (Tag: try_it) edifice sounds like HEAD+OFFICE means (big size building)

Edifice means a building, but it doesn't mean just any building. To merit(দযাগযতা,) being
called an edifice, a building must be important. A mini temple can be an edifice, or a
towering sky scraper.

The meaning of edifice has expanded to include a system of ideas––when it is


complicated enough to be considered to have walls and a roof, then it is an edifice. You
could say that basic facts of addition and subtraction are the foundation on which the
edifice of higher math rests.

Definition
(noun) an inflated feeling of pride in your superiority to others

Synonyms : egotism , self-importance

Definition
(noun) your consciousness of your own identity
Synonyms : self

Definition
(noun) (psychoanalysis) the conscious mind

Your ego is your conscious mind, the part of your identity that you consider your "self." If
you say someone has "a big ego," then you are saying he is too full of himself.

Poor ego, it gets such a bad rap, being so often confused with
"megalomaniaডনরজরকব়িবালডক্তলা঱ীবড঱য়াভাবারবাডতক " and "vanity(অ঵ংকার,আত্মগবজ)" and
all kinds of other nasty things, but strictly speaking it is only a psychological term
popularized by Freud meaning the conscious (as opposed to the unconscious) mind, or the
awareness of one's own identity and existence. Nothing wrong in that, is there?

 (Tag: ) can think as 'eject'; ejaculation is ejection of some words suddenly

An ejaculation is either the discharge of semen that happens when a man has an
orgasm(অতযডর্কউরত্তজনা,কামরক্রার্ইতযাডেরচরমঅবস্থা) or a suddent verbal outburst like
"Hey!"

Ejaculations are sudden and explosive. One type of ejaculation is the male orgasm, when
semen is propelled from the penis. The other type of ejaculation is verbal. "Stop!" and
"Wow!" are examples of ejaculations. People make ejaculations when they're excited or
have something important to say. Ejaculations are also called interjections. They often
interrupt, and they're usually full of emotion. Duh, yikes, holy cow, and d'oh (as in Homer
Simpson's D'OH!) are all ejaculations.
Elliptical বিম্বাকৃবত el·lip·ti·cal [i líptik'l]

 (adj.) having an oval shape

 (adj.) Elliptical language has parts missing, so that it is sometimes difficult to understand:

His message was written in a deliberately elliptical style.

synonyms : egg-shaped , elliptic , oval , oval-shaped , ovate , oviform , ovoid , prolate

Mnemonics for elliptical

 (Tag: ) elliptical means oval,which is not straight.If a person is not straight in his speech.
That means he has omitted words and is unclear
The word elliptical is derived from the oval shape known as an ellipse. Many comets
(র্ূমরকতু ) have an elliptical orbit around the Sun that brings them closer at some times and
farther away at others.

The adjective elliptical refers to the shape of an ellipse, which is an elongated circle,
stretched into an oval. While it is a mathematical shape, it also is used to describe a way of
speaking that cuts out extra, unnecessary language. When this style is used (say in a poem
an elliptical style) — because it doesn't shed any light on the meaning — it sometimes
makes the work obscure and hard to interpret.

Ever try to catch a mouse? It's not easy, because mice are quick and elusive — they're
tough to catch. Rabbits are speedy, so they're elusive too. Also, things that are tough to

(verb) give equal rights to; of women and

(verb) free from slavery or servitude
Synonyms : manumit

mnemonics for emancipate

 (Tag: ) cip= ship : a man is set free to travel in ship to his own country
 (Tag: ) a MAN was a CIPAy (soldier in Hindi) who was captured.. now made free

If you emancipate someone, you set them free from something. At the end of the Civil War,
slaves were emancipated and became free men and women.

If you break down emancipate, you have e- "out," -man- from the Latin manus "hand," and -
cip- from the Latin verb "to take." Put it together, and you have "to be taken out of
someone's hands" — a good definition of freedom. The American Revolution was about
colonists emancipating themselves from British rule. As a legal term, if a child is
emancipated, he or she is declared independent from parental control.

Mnemonics for emasculate

 (Tag: ) mascul(masculine)+ate(eat ..eat here means reducing)..reduction in masculine


qualities,...means weaking of a man.

When you emasculate something or someone, you take away its strength. Some people
believe that having a tough female boss can emasculate male employees.

The Latin emasculatus literally means "to castrate(জননলডক্ত নি করা,দখাজা করা)," though it
is usually used figuratively, the same way emasculate is sometimes used to suggest a man
isn't very manly. You may have seen bullies(েুবজর঱র উত্পী়িক,ভা়িারে গুণ্ডা)
hassle(ঝগ়িা,মারামাডর) a guy, saying he can't beat up anyone, or hit a curveball, or. . .you
get the idea. Such emasculating is also insulting to women because it suggests strength
and female are opposites.

When you embark on something, you are starting it — and it's exciting. You might embark
on a new career or embark on a trip to the Galapagos Islands. You wouldn't embark on a
trip to the grocery store.

The verb embark can be used specifically to refer to boarding a ship for a journey. When
used for general travel, the verb embark often implies a longer journey: "She embarked on
a trip around the world." Besides, physical journeys, embark can be used to mean to start
other kinds of journeys as well. You might embark on a spiritual journey or embark on the
path to enlightenment(আর঱াকপ্রাপ্ত অবস্থারবারর্ােয়). Pack well.

A story, song, or person that is engaging is entertaining, fun, and interesting — you want to
see or hear more.

To remember the meaning of engaging, it might help to think of what engaged means.
When a couple is engaged, they've agreed to get married. When something or somebody is
engaging, you want to spend more time with them too. Boring is the complete opposite of
engaging. Think of your favorite movie or TV show — especially one you can't stop
watching — it must be very engaging.

(verb) engage somebody to enter the army

To enlist is to voluntarily join the military. You may have seen television commercials or
posters encouraging people to enlist.

There are various ways people end up in the military. Sometimes there's a draft, which
selects people whether they want to go or not. Sometimes people enlist, which means they
sign up on their own. Enlisting also refers to recruiting(দ঴নাবাড঵নীরত নতু ন ভডতজ ঵ওয়া স঴ডনক,
ডনরয়াগ) or hiring people for some purpose or organization. If you are moving, you might
try to enlist your friends to help — good luck with that.

 in careful usage the noun enormity is not used to express the idea of great size
 universities recognized the enormity of their task

(noun) the quality of extreme wickedness
Mnemonics for enormity

 (Tag: ) ENORMITY resembles enormous, which means huge


An enormity is something extreme or huge, almost beyond comprehension
(দবার্লডক্ত,উপ঱ডব্ধ). If you call having to paint the house all by yourself an enormity, your
friends might take pity(঴মরবেনা) on you and show up with brushes and rollers.

Something that's enormous can be good — a huge paycheck! — or bad, such as a


tumor(টিউমার). But when it comes to enormity, some word lovers are up in arms. The
word originally meant "a crime," so some people think it should only be used to describe
wickedness or lack of morals. Others can't resist the word's similarity to enormous and
apply it to anything vast, positive or negative.

Entail means what something involves. "The job entailed us standing in the snow for hours
dressed as giant, human hot dogs. It entailed far too much humiliation to justify the $3.55
an hour we were paid."

The word entail is connected to the idea of preconditions. If you want something, you
better figure out what it entails. If we want to see the movie at 9 o'clock, that will entail us
waiting in the lobby another hour. If we want to stay out of trouble with our moms, that
will entail us calling them and letting them know we're going to be later than we said.

As a noun, entrance means an act of entering or something that provides a way to enter
something. You can make a grand entrance when you arrive at a party, as long as you can
actually find the entrance.

Entrance has two pronunciations. If you put the accent on the first syllable, the word is a
noun meaning the act of entering or the way into something ("an entrance to the
building"). If the accent is on the second syllable, then entrance is a verb meaning "to
enchant(জােুমগ্ধ
ু করা, দমাড঵ত করা), charm(যােুমন্ত্র), or enamor(দপ্ররমাচ্ছন্ন করা, ডবরমাড঵ত করা)"
— "You will be entranced by the movie; the scenery looks so real you will swear it is
growing in the theater."

If you're talking about a typical example of something, call it the epitome. The cartoon
character Garfield is the epitome of the fat, lazy, food-obsessed cat.

Coming to us from Greek through Latin, epitome refers to something that is the ultimate
representative of its class. Are you the epitome of the hard-working student or do you
believe in study in moderation? Make sure you pronounce epitome with the accent on the
second syllable (uh-PIH-tuh-mee).

Equable অপবরবতবনীে eq·ua·ble [ékwəb'l, ükwəb'l]

tranquil; of even calm temper; (of temperature) steady; uniform

 (adj.) always being pleasant:

Graham has a fairly equable temperament - I haven't often seen him really angry.

synonyms : even-tempered , good-tempered , placid

 (adj.) › not changing suddenly:

Mnemonics for equable

 (Tag: English) Equable rhymes like Equally stable, any one who is equally stable is not
easily irritated.
 (Tag: ) ABLE to take EQUALLY either good or bad
The adjective equable means "not easily irritated" or "steady," like someone's equable
manner that makes everyone instantly feel comfortable.

To correctly pronounce equable, accent the first syllable: "EK-wah-bul." It comes from
the Latin word aequabilis, meaning "equal, consistent, uniform." An equable person isn't
moody. You wouldn't expect him or her to fly into a rage(প্রচণ্ড দক্রারর্) one minute and be
humming(গুাঁজনকর,গুণ গুণ লব্দ) a happy tune the next. Instead, someone who is equable
takes things in stride(an important positive development:) — the good, the bad, and the
ugly, with a smile and the occasional reminder that "this too shall pass."

Synonyms : fickle , mercurial , quicksilver

Example Sentence

Definition
(adj) having no fixed course

Synonyms : planetary , wandering

Example Sentence

 an erratic comet
 his life followed a wandering course
 a planetary vagabond

The adjective erratic describes things that are unpredictable, unusual, and that deviate
from the norm(আেলজ,প্রথাড঴দ্ধ আচরণ). An erratic quarterback might completely confuse
his receivers waiting for a pass.

Like its linguistic relative, error, the adjective erratic means "deviating from the norm,"
or "wrong." It also implies behavior or qualities that are unpredictable or odd. The word
comes from the Latin verb errare, or "to wander(ঘুডরয়া দব়িারনা)" off course. In the field of
geology, a rock that is erratic is unlike others in its environment because it has been
transported(পডরবাড঵ত,দ্রৃীপান্তডরত) by glacial(তু ঳ার ঴ংক্রান্ত, বরফ-঴ংক্রান্ত) activity. Likewise,
someone driving a car that veers out of its lane is said to be driving erratically.

Use the verb espouse to describe the actions of someone who lives according to specific
beliefs, such as your friends who espouse environmentalism and as a result walk whenever
possible instead of taking the car.

You can see the word spouse in espouse, so you may be wondering what husbands and
wives have to do with it. Originally espouse did mean "to marry," but its meaning has
evolved to include other long-term commitments as well, such as support for a principle or
a cause. Similar to marriage, if you espouse a belief system, the idea is that you've chosen
to wed yourself to it.

saying you have nothing but the highest respect for them.

Esteem derives from the same Latin word that gives us estimate, and back in the day,
esteem, like estimate meant "to assess, or judge the value of something." That sense
lingers(যাইরত দেডর করা,) today. When you say you hold someone in high esteem, it means
you give them a high value. Unless you're a politician, in which case, when you say, "I
hold my opponent in high esteem," you are most likely to follow that statement with a big

From the French évasif, it’s an adjective that describes someone who's being intentionally
shifty(দকৌল঱ী,চতু র,ছ঱নাপূণজ ) or vague(অস্পি,মরনর কথা স্পি প্রকাল কডররত অক্ষম). But a

Facetious is a useful word to describe something that's humorous, or meant to be

 (Tag: ) Fanfare - can be read as Fans invite their Heroes by conducting big Fair's

Fanfare is a loud, proud burst of something to get attention. If you open up a


carpet(গাড঱চা) store with one of those sky-sweeping(঴ুেরূ প্র঴াডরত) lights, lots of balloons,
and a brass(ডপত঱,) band, you’re doing it with great fanfare.

Originally fanfare meant a short burst of music played by trumpeters, usually when
someone important entered a room. But these days we describe anything as fanfare that
has the same feeling as a burst of trumpets. If you’re a TV executive with a new show you
think is going to be a big hit, roll it out with fanfare–—ad campaigns, billboards, celebrity
parties!

handcuffs in front of the public that can be the worst part of being convicted. In some
countries, you're considered a felon simply because the king says that you are. Here in the
U.S., though, you're innocent until proven guilty, at which point people can call you a
felon. My boyfriend took the dog, the TV, and my expensive French sauté pan after we
broke up. If you ever run into the felon, please kick him in the shins দ ং, and tell him he's a
criminal.

163 | P a g e
 (Tag: ) U FLINCH to pinch someone

To flinch is to react to pain by wincing(঴িু ডচত ঵ত্তয়া), pulling away, or cringing. Often it's
used to describe a person who shows a moment of weakness or fright: he was so tough, I
thought he'd never flinch, but snakes really freak(খামরখয়া঱,খাপছা়িা দকারনা ডকছু ) him out.

To flinch is to pull away suddenly or recoil(প্রডতডক্রয়া ড঵র঴রব এর঴ প়িা, প্রতযাগমন করা,) when
something frightens or hurts you. People flinch at different things. Needles, for example,
cause some people to flinch, while they're not even noticed by others. If you can withstand
something awful(ভয়াব঵,ভয়ির) without showing it, you're likely to hear someone say
"Wow! You didn't even flinch!" Think of it as a combination of flee and pinch. If you don't
flee when you get pinched, you don't flinch.

the college library can give you a colorless, weary(ক্লাডন্তকর) face, but after a mountain
vacation, you'll be florid with the reddish color that comes from exercise and living well.

Florid is an adjective that entered English in the 17th century, via the French floride, from
the Latin flōridus, "blooming(প্রস্ফু টিত,ডবকডলত)." You can probably guess how Florida and
flourish are related! Something overly decorated, such as a really ornate living room, is
florid in the flowery sense, while people with rosy cheeks and a look of healthiness are
florid because they are flourishing(উেীয়মান,জাাঁকান) with a fullness of life. Your florid
complexion matched your florid red drapes as you came in from the cold and plunked down
on the couch near the window.

power)

 (noun) a behavioral attribute that is distinctive and peculiar to an individual

We all have our little foibles.

synonyms : idiosyncrasy , mannerism


If you repeat foible out loud enough times, it sounds so funny that you can laugh at it and
maybe remember to laugh at the odd and distinctive weaknesses of others — the foible or
two or a hundred that we all have.

Sometimes a foible helps make a person who they are, even if the foible, or weakness
("feeble" is a close relative), is a little odd. Synonyms for foible in a negative sense are
"failing," "shortcoming," and in a more positive sense "quirk," "eccentricity." It can
likewise be annoying or endearing. Most people have a foible, or idiosyncrasy, that stands
out to others, but interestingly, a person rarely sees his or her own characteristic foible.

Stand outside the school cafeteria passing out flyers with nutritional details on school food,
and you may foment a revolution––foment means stirring up something undesirable, such
as trouble.

You would never say, "Hooray, we fomented a revolution." Instead you'd say, "Those good
for nothing scalawags(অকমজণয বযডক্ত) fomented the rebellion." Don't confuse foment and
ferment. Ferment can mean "to stir up" in a good way––a football game can ferment

rhythm, dancing would not be considered your forte. Better to impress people with card
tricks, if that's your area of expertise, or your forte.

Your forte is what you would focus on if you decided to enter a talent show. The word forte
actually comes from the similar-sounding Latin word fortis, which means "strong."
Romans (and countless groups since) called the big, barricaded structures they built "forts"
because they were supposed to stay strong and keep out the hordes(a large group of people)
of invading barbarians(অডলডক্ষত দ঱াক). In music, playing forte means playing loud.

Gall describes something irritating, like someone very rude.

If someone has gall, they're irritating. In fact, as a verb, gall means "to irritate" like new
tight jeans that gall your thighs. Gall is "bile," too, like what's in a gall bladder. Back in
the days of Hippocrates ড঵রপারক্রটি঴, if the four humors of the body were out of
whack(খেখে কডরয়া আঘাত), it affected your spirits. If you had too much bile, or gall, then
you'd be aggressive or depressed. It's also a noun for "deep feeling of ill will."

to suggest stimulating someone into action.

The word galvanize was coined(উদ্ভাডবত) to honor the 18th Century scientist Luigi Galvani,
who found that a spark could make a frog's legs move. This discovery led to further studies
in bioelectrogenesis, or what Galvani called "animal electricity," and became the basis for
the Mary Shelley book Frankenstein, in which a mad scientists attempts to use electricity
to galvanize a monster(অডতকায় প্রাণী, আস্বাভাডবক বা অদ্ভূ ত জীব) to life. Nowadays, people
use this term much more figuratively, like when they describe galvanizing a political
movement or even a sports team into action.

Mnemonics for genteel


 (Tag: ) this word is very close to GENTLE..AND A GENTLEMAN IS ONE who
is WELL BRED, elegant and GIVES A REFINED APPEARANCE .

Although the adjective genteel means high-class and refined(পডররলাডর্ত,঴ুরুডচ঴ম্পন্ন), it is


often used today in a somewhat mocking(ডবদ্রূপকারী) tone, as though good manners and
elegance(঴ুরুডচপূণজতা) are passé(ডবগতরযৌবনা). Still, it would be nice if more people were a
little more genteel.

The word genteel comes from the Old French word gentil, "high-born, noble." We can see
the similarity to the word gentle, as in gentleman and gentlewoman. The word is especially
powerful in describing Chaucer's Knight in the Canterbury Tales as "a verray, parfit gentil
knyght" — "a true, perfect, noble knight," dignified(঴ম্মাডনত,ম঵ীয়ান), patrician(অডভজাত),

bred.

right away, or did it take months for him to come up with the idea?

Frequently, gestate is used to refer to ideas and plans while they're in the development
phase. The idea for a new way to market music to a generation of kids who expect it to be
free was gestating for years before iTunes was launched. A gestation period is the time it
takes for something to be born. Humans, for example, gestate for nine months.

originally spelled gastli. But over the years, people confused gastli with ghost, began to
adopt the gh- spelling. But don't you forget the "h" - that would be a ghastly spelling error
on your part.

you have to overcome: it's a glaring problem for that sport. Things that are glaring in this
way are almost always bad:

If you gloat, you express great satisfaction at the misfortune of others. If your team scores
a big win, it would be better not to gloat. Be happy for your win, but don't laugh at their
loss.

Gloat seems have come from a Germanic word meaning "to stare(ডস্থর েৃডিরত তাকান)."
Somehow people may have gotten the sense that whoever was doing the staring was also
taking a deep and unwholesome(অস্বাস্থযকর,অড঵তকর,) pleasure in whatever he or she was
seeing. Think about people staring and pointing and laughing. Sometimes you gloat when
someone has rejected the help you have offered. If your little sister won't listen to your
advice on how to improve her essay and then comes home with a bad grade, it will be very
hard not to gloat and say "I told you so."

The original gossamer, from which these meanings come from, is the fine, filmy substance
spiders excrete to weave their webs. A dress can be gossamer-like, if its fabric is so sheer
as to be see-through, or almost. Your chances of going to a good college are "gossamer

When you wrestle(মল্লযুদ্ধ) with something — literally or figuratively — you grapple with
it, or try to overcome it.

If you trace the word grapple back to its French roots, you’ll discover that the word
originally referred to "a grape hook," a pronged tool used to harvest grapes(আঙ্গুর). If you
think about how awkward(অ঴ুডবর্াজনক) it would be to harvest grapes, with the individual
grapes ready to scatter everywhere, it makes sense that grapple eventually
evolved(অডভবযক্ত,প্র঴ূত) to include a verb form used to describe struggling with something
unruly(উচ্ছৃঙ্খ঱,অবার্য). You might grapple with a budget shortfall, grapple for answers,
grapple with a wrestling(মল্লযুদ্ধ) opponent, or grapple with a new technology.

Ever seen a film where a police officer puts a bright light in a criminal’s face and

have to be tough on him, and not let him off the hook too easily. Being grilled means you

to grill than be grilled, but if you get caught — think of an alibi, quick!

Being attacked by a hungry shark or being chased by an unruly mob (঳াধাযণ শরাক) on the streets can be
described as harrowing, which means "provoking feelings of fear or horror."

The adjective harrowing is often used to describe a firsthand (If you experience something first-hand, you
experience it yourself) experience that is terrifying, such as a harrowing drive home in icy weather, but it can
also refer to a secondhand (not new; having been used in the past by someone else) experience, such as
reading or watching something that is very frightening or disturbing.

For example, if you bump into (to meet someone you know when you have not planned to meet them) a
shark while swimming, that’s merely scary. If the shark attacks you, then it becomes a harrowing ordeal
(অরগ্ন঩যীক্ষা).

Imperial carries the implication মা আবাষ্ট঳ত ঴য়েয়ছ of royalty, usually pertaining to an

The word imperial has a lofty feel, and though it's often used of royalty, it is sometimes
used to refer to anything extremely large or impressive(ষ্টিত্তাকলষক,হৃদেস্প঱ী). It was once
the name of a large suitcase that was too big to fit inside a coach and so was tied on top.
Think of something imperial as being something so upper-class that it's almost to the
point of royalty — and sometimes almost to the point of being a joke.

If you choose people to be on your team by closing your eyes and pointing, that's
impersonal — you're not picking your friends or the best players.

Impersonal can be good. An impersonal rejection is easier to take than one that specifies
precisely why you, in particular, are a reject. But if your class is so impersonal, your
teacher doesn't even know your name, that’s not good. A wedding that doesn't include
details about the bride and groom would be impersonal and maybe more like a business
meeting than a celebration. Impersonal comes from the Latin roots in- (or im-), "not," and
personalis, "of a person."

The verb implicate means "to connect or involve in something." For example, your cousins
might implicate you in the planning of a big party for your grandparents.

Implicate comes from the Latin word implicare, meaning "to entwine, involve." When you
implicate someone, you bring him or her into a group or to pitch ষ্টনষ্টদষি স্থায়ন স্থা঩ন কযা in on
a project. Implicate can have criminal connotations when it means "to connect in an
incriminating manner," like when detectives figure out who drove the getaway car in the
bank robbery — that person will be implicated for his or her role in the crime.

or consequences that may happen in the future. You might ask, "What are the implications
of our decision?" Implication is also the state of being implicated, or connected to

Use the adjective implicit when you mean that something is understood but not clearly
stated. You might think you and your boyfriend might have an implicit understanding that
you are going to get married, but it's probably better to talk it through.

A very near synonym of implicit in this particular meaning is the word implied. But the
adjective implicit also means "complete without any doubt," so we can say that we have
implicit trust or confidence in someone. The Latin root implicāre means "to involve or
entangle ঝায়ভরাে জড়ান." Another English word with a more obvious connection to the
Latin is the verb implicate.

To inaugurate means to start something, to give it a kick off(the time when an activity
starts). The opening day pep rally inaugurates the high school football season.

Inaugurate comes from the Latin word augur, which means taking signs from birds, or
telling the future. The Romans would always look for good omens ঩ূফষরক্ষণ to mark the
beginning of something––a war, or a new emperor’s reign(঱া঳নকার,আভর)––so inaugurate
became linked to new beginnings. While inaugurate has long been used in formal contexts,
such as the swearing-in ceremony that inaugurates a President's term in office, inaugurate is
now also used casually. You might inaugurate your marathon training with a long run.

Incendiary means more than flammable. It means explosive. If you are a radical who

be called an incendiary figure. The speeches you give that rile(উত্তযক্ত কযা, মরাষ্টধত কযা)

Incense means both "to make angry" and a stick that burns slowly and emits a strong smell.
If your new college roommate burns incense in your tiny dorm (a large building at a
college or university where students live) room, you might get incensed and storm out.

How can a word that means a substance that is burned for its sweet odor come to mean
"make very angry"? Both have to do with the idea of burning, and the Latin root incendere,
"to set on fire." A stick of incense must be lit, or set on fire to release its smell. When you
are incensed by something, such as your teacher slamming(a sudden loud noise) you with
homework on the night of the prom, you feel like you are burning with anger.

There have been quite a few incidences of bullying in the school this year. An increased
incidence of cancer near nuclear power stations

synonyms : relative incidence

16 | P a g e
Incidence means the frequency with which something bad occurs. You’ll hear of
―incidences of cancer‖ or ―incidences of war." You hope the incidence is decreasing, not
increasing.

You might confuse incidence and incident. They sound similar, but incident refers only to
something that happened, not to the frequency with which it happens. After a car accident,
the police file an incident report, which is a fancy way of saying they write down what
happened.

Prevalence means there is a lot of something. If you get a bad grade on a paper for having a
prevalence of typos (a small mistake in a text made when it was typed or printed), you need
to proof read your work more carefully.

The word prevalence comes from the Latin praevalere, meaning "condition of being
widespread or general." The word is often used to describe a phenomenon that is
widespread in a community, like the prevalence of a disease across a country. Prevalence is
another word for "commonness." If there's a prevalence of thefts in your neighborhood, that
means the likelihood of your house getting robbed is pretty high.

The word incident is quite vague অস্পি. It can refer to a humorous occurrence or a violent
one, something that disturbed one's routine or something unusual that happened. If a child
screams তীক্ষ্ন আতষ নাদ in a library, it's not that unusual, but if an adult does, that's an
incident! As an adjective, incident is used in the field of physics to describe particles or
radiation that fall on a surface. The incident light showed how dirty the windows were.

terrible nightmares and making them feel like they're suffocating(শ্বা঳য়যাধী). In the Middle
Ages, not only did people believe incubi (yes, that's the plural) were real, they passed laws

Mnemonics for incumbent

If you accuse someone of committing an offense, you indict them. A book that indictsthe
entire education system might lay out all the reasons that schools are failing kids.

In a legal sense, the verb indict means to bring formal charges against someone, especially
in a court of law, as in a federal grand jury. The grand jury indicted, the man on 12 counts
of murder. Although it's true the boy had stolen cookies from the cookie jar in the past, that
is no reason to indict him out of hand in the present case. There were no witnesses and the
crumb evidence would suggest someone else committed the crime.

employee of a donut (a small circular cake) shop that infiltrates the competition to try to
learn its "secret recipe" for its delicious dough (মাখা মযদার িা঱).

Infiltrate is a verb that is familiar to international spies and undercover agents, who are all
adept at joining a group under false pretenses (ভাি, ভণ্ডানম), fitting in, and working their
way up to the highest ranks in order to find out as much information as they can about the
group.

The adjective insensible is used to describe someone who is unconscious.

The adjective insensible describes a lack of emotional response or being indifferent. If


your friend says that the roller coaster was so scary (ভীনি - ঈত্পাদক) it nearly made him
vomit and you shrug (নিক্কার) and say, "Eh, it was okay," he may think you
are insensible to fear. A lack of physical sensation can also be described as insensible. If
your nerve endings are not acute and you don't feel much pain, you are insensible to pain.
This can be dangerous, though, because you might not notice if you get hurt skateboarding
(the activity or sport of riding a skateboard).

 (Tag: ) IN(not)+SIGN....without any signal i.e indirectly hint or imply ....

Insinuate means you imply (অভান঴, আনিনি প্রকাল করা) or suggest something that may or
may not be true. If you say things seemed to go wrong about the time your brother took
over, you insinuate that he had something to do with the decline.

There's another way to insinuate. Suppose you're in line to get into a popular dance club
when a celebrity appears, surrounded by a big entourage (পনরনবষ্টিী). If you strike up (to
start a relationship or conversation with someone) a conversation with one of the
entourage, you may be able to insinuate that you're part of the group and go in with them.
Don't feel bad — people have been doing it at least since the 1520s,
when insinuate evolved from the Latin word insinuare, meaning "wind one's way into."

of flavor). Because spices and salts are left out, hospital food is usually insipid. The most
common use of the word is in a metaphorical sense for dull or flat (একনঘনয). You might
think that your goody-two-shoes cousin is the most insipid girl you've ever met.

the relationship.
 (Tag: ) Necrophobia =Fear of dead, Necromancy=Magic with dead,Inter-
necine=Both of them die.(the fighters)
Prepare yourself, because internecine is a gloomy ষ্টফলণ্ণ word. It’s an adjective you’d use to
describe a bloody battle where both sides are badly hurt. On a lighter note, it can also mean
a conflict that tears an organization apart(to pull something so violently that it breaks into
two or more pieces).

A combination of the Latin inter- (―among‖) and necare (―to kill‖),internecine conflicts are
full of blood and death, and they end up destroying everyone involved, which sounds fair
but also awful(বোফ঴,বেঙ্কয). Many wars are internecine, as are most Shakespearean
tragedies and Hollywood action films. An internecine meeting would be one where
everyone gets mad, says really horrible things, and then suddenly leaves, plotting revenge.
It’s probably the last meeting for that group, which might be a good thing.

When you interpolate words into a text, you alter the text by adding words in. Scholars can
identify the original text from material interpolated at a later date. If you are describing an
author's work, you might want to interpolate a few examples of his writing into your

"To frighten" or "make fearful" is at the root of the verb intimidate. An animal might
intimidate a smaller animal by bearing its teeth, and a person can intimidate another by
threatening to do something harmful. You can be intimidated with mental or emotional
bullying(বে মদখায়না), as well as with something physical: "they were all good spellers, but
some of them knew how to intimidate the competition into thinking they didn't have a
chance at winning the spelling bee."

heating corn kernels until they explode, or "pop." Like these examples, sometimes kernel means
"a small bit" or "single piece," as in a story someone tells you that couldn't possibly have
happened as described, but still has a kernel of truth about human nature

ক঱াক , লযিাি , দুষ্টু কছন঱), a scoundrel(বজ্জাি , পানজ), or a rogue. It isn't a compliment.

If you read Shakespeare for long, you'll definitely see the word knave more than once. In
Shakespeare, an important person like a king or a prince might call a thief a knave. Knaves always
tend to be up to trouble such as stealing and getting drunk. You don't want to trust a knave; knaves

A malady is an illness, like a malady that keeps you home, sick in bed for days, or
something that causes you to have trouble or to suffer, like jet lag — a malady that affects
travelers.

Malady, pronounced "mal-uh-DEE," comes from the Latin words male, meaning "bad or
ill" and habitus for "have, hold." When you have a malady, it is like something bad is
holding you, such as an illness — the common cold: a malady of winter. Some bad habits
cause maladies, such as never having any money — the malady of people who spend
freely, not thinking of the future.

mala D is a pill ( contraceptive ):: and you take pills when you become ill.

(অ঵াম্মক,কবাকা)!‖ Each of those nasty curses is a malediction (and, I’m sure, nothing you
would ever say to another human being).

Mal comes from the Latin for "evil" and "diction(লনের নিবযাচি ও বযব঵ার , বাগনবিযা঴প্রো঱ী ,
বাগরীনি)...," and as you may remember, has to do with what we say. So a malediction is an
evil statement directed at someone else. Pretty nasty, if you ask me.

If a police officer has to manacle your hands behind your back, you're in big trouble.
That's just a fancy way of saying that you've been handcuffed.

Used as a noun, manacle is a synonym for shackle(পানযর কবনড়, ঵াআির কবনড়, ঵ািকড়া),
meaning "a metal chain or band, used to fasten someone’s hands or ankles together."
You’re more likely to see the noun form of this word in its plural form manacles, since —
like socks or mittens(দিািা নবনল঳) — a pair is usually required. (Quite unlike socks or
mittens, manacles are not at all comfortable or pleasant to wear.) You can say that
someone who has been restrained using manacles has been manacled.

or a noun as well as a verb. As an adjective, manifest is a formal way to say that something
is apparent(দৃলযমাি , স্পষ্ট , প্রিযক্ষ , প্রিীযমাি) to the senses and is synonymous with evident,
apparent, or clear. If you have strong feelings about something, they will be manifest on
your face. A ship or plane's manifest is the list of cargo or passengers on a particular trip.

কখাদাআকর) manipulating clay or a really good politician working the crowd.

The verb manipulate evolved from manipulation, which back in the 1700s referred to a
method of digging ore(অকনরক). So manipulating something originally only meant
moving or arranging it by hand or mechanically. It wasn't until 1864 that people started
using the word manipulate to describe someone exerting প্রনযাগ করা mental or emotional
influence on others.

Marine time!

Use maritime to describe anything involving the sea and ships. A maritime museum would
probably be located in a coastal town, and stuffed full of historic boats, oars(কিৌনকার দাাঁড় ,
঱নগ), life preservers, and fishing gear.

Maritime comes from the Latin word maritimus, which means "of the sea," so the meaning
hasn't evolved(প্র঴ূি , জাি, গজাি) much. Whales and dolphins are maritime animals, and
according to maritime law, the captain of a ship can marry two people at sea. It's very
similar to nautical, except nautical refers to ships, and maritime covers ships and other
ocean-related stuff.

Marshal derives from the Old French mareschal, for stable officer. The stable officer had
charge of the horses, tending(঩ষ্টযিমষা কযা, মত্নফান্ ঴ত্তো মকান রয়ক্ষয িাষ্টরত ঴ত্তো, মঝােঁকা) to
them, putting them in order, readying them for action. If you are a marshal, you're an

ছযাাঁকা) into their skins. Samuel was a maverick for going against the common practice of
tracking his animals, and his last name became part of the English language as both an
adjective and a noun in the 19th century. Someone who acts very independently is a
maverick, and individual actions that stand out are maverick, as in "her maverick jumping

middle, between the parties. Other things that are in the middle can be said to mediate as

Melancholy is beyond sad: as a noun or an adjective, it's a word for the gloomiest of
spirits.

Being melancholy means that you're overcome in sorrow, wrapped up in sorrowful


thoughts. The word started off as a noun for deep sadness, from a rather disgusting
source. Back in medieval times, people thought that secretions of the body called
"humors" determined their feelings, so a depressed person was thought to have too much
of the humor (জীবনদ঵নি:঴ৃি র঴) known as melancholy — literally "black bile" secreted
from the spleen. Fortunately, we no longer think we're ruled by our spleens, and that
black bile has been replaced by another color of sorrow: the "blues."

Have you ever heard the phrase "fake it until you make it"? That is advice that encourages

To correctly pronounce meretricious, accent the third syllable: "mer-uh-TRISH-us." Don't


mistake something that is meretricious for having merit. In fact, it is just the opposite.
From an expensive restaurant that looks expensively furnished but when the lights are
turned up, you can see that "leather" chairs are just cheap vinyl or a woman who pretends
her counterfeit (িক঱) handbags are designer originals, meretricious actions are meant to
deceive.

82 | P a g e

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for metaphysical
meta + physics -> suffix 'meta' means change.. so if physics keeps changing, it means the
topic is only theoretical and cannot be proved practically..

meta = data about ~ data about physics? means to understand and study existence of life and
nature of reality

Add the Greek prefix "meta-" (beyond) to the base "physical" (nature), and you get
metaphysical — a near synonym to the Latin-based word "supernatural." Both concern
phenomena that are outside everyday experience or knowledge.

The adjective metaphysical entered the English language through Aristotle, whose
"Metaphysics" is a collection of treatises(িু ষ্টক্ত,প্রফন্ধ,ষ্টনফন্ধ) that follows his work, "Physics."
"Physics" concerned natural philosophy, what we call science today, while "Metaphysics"
dealt(মভাকাষ্টফরা) with more abstract questions about the reality beyond what we perceive
with our senses. Look at a physical object, say an apple. At what exact point did that apple
come into existence? If you eat it, does it cease ক্ষাে ঵ওযা to exist, or does it still exist but
in a changed way? These are metaphysical questions.

If the ruler you use is marked with millimeters and centimeters, you can say you use
metrical measurements.

The adjective metrical is a less common way to say metric, as in the metric system of
measurement. Instead of using inches and feet, a metrical system uses centimeters and
meters as units for measuring length. Most countries measure metrical distances, size, and
lengths, although the United States doesn't. The root of metrical is the Greek word metron,
which means "measure."

 appalled by the social conditions of migrant life

A migrant worker is someone who travels for a job––in the U.S., many farm workers
migrate from Mexico every year to work on the harvest and then return home when their
jobs are over.

If you have traveled into a new country, you are said to have immigrated there, and you are
an immigrant(঄নভবা঴ী). An emigrant(ফাস্তুতযাগী,মদ঱ান্তযী,অনযয়দ঱ফা঳ী) is someone who has
left. Migrant doesn't refer to whether you are coming in or out––often it means someone
who often travels back and forth, like migrant birds who migrate south every winter, year
after year.

Animals that change locations with the seasons are said to be migratory. Ruby-throated
hummingbirds are migratory. They spend winter in the warmer climate of Mexico,
Central, and South America and then return to the eastern United States in the spring.

People who move from place to place in search of work are said to be migratory. The
adjective is often used in combination with the noun workers. In the United States,
migratory workers travel from state to state to help bring in the harvest, often with whole
families traveling together. After a cold winter, you might want to be a bit migratory
yourself: you could move south to Florida in the winter and return north to Ottawa each
spring.

If you have misgivings about something, it means you're worried that it's not a good idea.
Trying to fall asleep the night before a test, you might have misgivings about having
studied so little.

Misgivings are feelings of doubt you experience about something before you do it. As you
get closer to the time you actually get on the airplane, you might begin to have misgivings
about traveling far away to go to college, or you might have misgivings about joining the
army to pay for your education.

Imitation may be the most sincere form of flattery(মখা঱াভুষ্টদ,মতালায়ভাদ,িাটু ফাকয), but to


mock is to make fun of or mimic(অনুকযণ঩ূফক ষ ফযঙ্গ কযা) someone with
contempt(অফভাননায), ridicule(উ঩঴া঳,টিটকাষ্টয,ষ্টফদ্রূ঩) or derision(উ঩঴া঳). "Louise’s
favorite pastime was to mock her brother’s inability to sing on key."

The verb mock — as in the use that inspired the name of the mockingbird — can be
simple imitation but, more often, to mock someone is to show disdain(অফজ্ঞা) through
mimicry(অনুকযণ) or parody. As an adjective, mock indicates a fake or a simulation: "The

describes something imposing(ভয়নাযভ,প্রবু ত্বফযঞ্জক,প্রতাযণা঩ূণষ) or massive(ফৃ঴দােতন) in size.

Monumental can also refer to something that's of outstanding importance or significance.


A monumental decision for you would be one that changes your life — like the day you
got engaged or when you decided to move to New York to be an actor. The word
monumental can also be used if you're talking about a monument, a statue or structure
commemorating(স্মৃষ্টতযক্ষা কযা) a person or event. You might admire the monumental
stonework on the statue in the town square.

If the first section of the newspaper you read is the obituaries(ভৃতু্ ু ম঳াংফাদ), you could be
considered morbid. Morbid is a word used to describe anyone who spends too much time
thinking about death or disease.

A lot of English words relating to medicine and science come from Latin, and the
adjective morbid is one of them; it comes from the root morbidus, meaning "diseased" or
"sick." Morbid can also be used to describe other nouns besides people. If you wear Goth
(অ঳বয ফযষ্টক্ত, ফফষয)clothing, your wardrobe might be described as morbid. And if you
hang tombstones on your walls, your taste in art could also be described as morbid.

Something that is moribund is almost dead, like the moribund plant you didn't water for
months, or so without change or growth that it seems dead, like a moribund town that
seems trapped in the 1950s.

In Latin, mori means "to die." You probably recognize this root in words like mortal
(মরেলী঱), mortician(঳ৎকায ফযফ঳ােী), and mortuary (মৃিুয ঴ম্বন্ধীয). Moribund means "near
death," but it can also mean something that is coming to an end, nearly obsolete (পুরাি),
or stagnant (নস্থ্র).

But morbid comes from the root morbidus, meaning "diseased" or "sick." Morbid is a busy
adjective, going from dark to darker describing terrible things such as anything related to
disease –obesity(মভদফহুরতা), insanity(উন্঩াদ মযাগ, ঩াগরায়ভা), the plague - or
unwholesome(অস্বাস্থযকয,মযাগজনক) thoughts.

This French import is related to the Latin verb movere which means "to move." Think about a
pattern or design that moves throughout something when you hear motif. Have you ever been to
a restaurant with a tropical or wild-west motif? Do you like dresses with a floral(঩ুষ্পয়঱াষ্টবত)

If you've encountered the word motley, it's most likely in the phrase "motley crew দর ,
নাষ্টফকদর (= a group consisting of many different types of people)," which means a diverse
and poorly organized group.

a synonym for mismatched(মভয়রষ্টন), heterogeneous, or ragtag(উচ্ছৃঙ্খর জন঳াধাযণ). But the

like a hurricane just hit it, you might describe it as a muddle.

Oftentimes, we create the muddles in our lives, so it’s appropriate that muddle can be used
as a verb meaning ―to mix up‖ or ―confuse.‖ Conveniently, though, the word muddle also
describes a way out of difficult situations; to muddle through a troublesome task is to
somehow figure it out, even if you don’t quite know what you’re doing. It has been
suggested that muddle comes from an old Dutch word meaning ―to make muddy.‖

Mundane, from the Latin word mundus, "world," originally referred to things on earth.
Such things were supposed to be uninteresting when compared to the delights of Heaven;

predicting events like the French Revolution and the atom bomb. Whether you believe in
mystics or not, the word is not just used to describe people. When something is mystic, it has
to do with religious mysteries and practices or it simply inspires a sense of mystery or
wonder, like the Himalaya Mountains, which some people consider a mystic place.

No one likes being called naive, since it means you lack sophistication or street smarts.

A person who is too trusting can be criticized for being overly naive: "You're so naive, you think that
e-mail from the Nigerian prince is really going to make you a million dollars!" Naive shares the same
root as native, and originally meant "natural" or "not artificial." It can still be used in a more positive
meaning when describing a charming lack of artificiality, as in "the naive style of folk art made by an
untrained painter."

If you accidentally leave half a sandwich under your bed for a few days, cover your nose while
you sleep because it will probably become quite noisome. This is a fancy way of saying that it will
stink.

Despite that first syllable, this adjective doesn’t have root origins in the word noise, but is related to the
word annoy. Noisome can refer to anything unpleasant or anything that makes you nauseous. However,
it is most often used to describe bad smells. So spray some air freshener, open the windows, and clean

Ominous, and the related word omen both come from the 16th century Latin word ōmen
"foreboding." However, unlike omen, which is a sign of something good or bad to come, ominous
always describes something unpleasant or threatening. If the future looks ominous, you've got
nothing to look forward to. Figuratively, an ominous sky or ominous clouds promise rain or a storm.

If you see an ominous frown (to bring your eyebrows together so that there are lines on your face
above your eyes to show that you are annoyed or worried) on your boss's face, you're in trouble!

114 | P a g e
sight
Example Sentence
 opaque windows of the jail
 opaque to X-rays

Definition
(adj) not clearly understood or expressed
Synonyms : unintelligible

Use the adjective opaque either for something that doesn't allow light to pass through (like a
heavy curtain) or for something difficult to understand.

Opaque is from a Latin word meaning "dark," and that was its original sense in English, but it now
means literally "not transparent" or metaphorically "hard to understand; unclear": "Some of his
sentences are really opaque." It used to be spelled opake, which made the pronunciation clearer, but
we then borrowed the more opaque French spelling.

Come to think of it, English spelling is often pretty opaque, which makes it hard for learners of the
language to master.

To orchestrate is to design or organize something, like a plan or a project.

people playing together. Similarly, when we talk about orchestrating, someone is coordinating
the activities of many people to accomplish something. The manager of an office orchestrates the
business. A coach orchestrates the play of the team. Terrorist leaders orchestrate attacks.
Orchestrating is like directing, and it applies to many more things than just music.

An ordained minister is one who's been appointed to the job by a special church authority. If
you've ever had to sit through a lecture about the evils of too much TV, you know that a person
doesn't need to be ordained in order to preach.

When you say that people have been ordained, you usually mean that they've been invested with
special powers. After a priest has been ordained in the Catholic church, he can perform sacraments.
Such priests are higher up in the church hierarchy than others, and those below them can be called
their ―subordinates,‖ a word also related to ordain.

OUT

A teacher may oust you from class if you are being disruptive, or you might oust your class
president from her position if you beat her in the election. To oust is to “expel,” “kick out,” or
“remove and replace.”

When you oust someone, you are ―giving them the boot.‖ A sports team is ousted from a tournament if
they lose an elimination round. Oust often implies both removal and replacement. The automobile, for
instance, ousted the horse as the preferred means of travel. Likewise, when a politician ousts someone
from office they are taking that person’s place in office.

social situations. A completely different meaning of outgoing describes someone who is
departing, like an employee who will soon retire, or an outgoing club treasurer who isn't
running for re-election.

synagogue(ইহুষ্টদ ধভষভণ্ডরী ফা ধভষস্থান), church, or mosque. It could be that they worship
several gods at once, or they have no interest in a god at all. Religious people sometimes
use pagan as a put-down to describe the unreligious as godless and uncivilized.

A pall was originally a coffin’s cloak(kləʊk,আরখাল্লা). Now pall usually means that an
event or situation is — literally or figuratively — covered in gloom, like disappointing
news that casts a pall on your day.

The noun pall comes from the Latin word, pallium, ―covering or cloak.‖ This use of pall
has come to mean "gloom ষ্টফলাদ " like your grandparents' not being there to celebrate with
you that casts a pall over your graduation. The verb pall is used when someone or
something becomes boring or less interesting over time, like your initial willingness to
perform household that began to pall when you realize no one else wants to pitch(ষ্টনষ্টদষি
স্থায়ন স্থা঩ন কযা) in to keep things neat.

American English, however, it is most often used to refer to politics and the American two-
party system of Democrats and Republicans. A bill introduced may have partisan support
from the party that introduced the bill, or the bill may even have bipartisan support. The
prefix bi is added to show the support from both parties.

master to his apprentice. If you want to take an advanced class and your advisor warns you
of all the hard work, you can tell him to stop patronizing you — you know a hard class

teacher who is overly interested in rules and details, hence the science of teaching, rather
than actually getting through to his or her students.

sense, it came to mean any close-knit group. Another definition of phalanx — any bone in a
finger or toe ঩ায়েয আঙ্গুর — also came out of the military sense: these bones work together
closely, just like a military phalanx. The plural for these bones is phalanges, while the
plural for the other senses is phalanxes.

[pílləree]
punish by placing in a wooden frame or pillory;
subject or expose to criticism and ridicule; N.
 (verb)to severely criticize someone, especially in a public way:
Although regularly pilloried by the press as an obnoxious loudmouth, he is,
nonetheless, an effective politician.
 (verb) punish by putting in a pillory
He was pilloried for abusing the king publicly. He was pilloried by the press on
account of his affair.
Mnemonics for pillory
 (Tag: ) Pillory: The word pillor stands out. Visualise a person being tied to a pillar as
a punishment.
A pillory is a wooden frame with cutouts for someone's head and hands. Long ago, people
found guilty of a crime could be sentenced to be locked in a pillory for a certain amount of
time for punishment but also for public humiliation.

The verb pillory means to be punished by being locked in a pillory, but references to this
form of punishment are historic and it is no longer used — you might see references today
to someone in a pillory in a cartoon. As a modern verb, pillory means both to criticize
harshly and to expose to public ridicule. Someone who is caught doing something immoral
may be pilloried and people who believe they have been unfairly criticized say they have
been pilloried, but often only after they've been exposed!

If you pine for someone, you desperately(ষ্টনদারুণবায়ফ) want to see them, be with them, or
perhaps smother(শ্ব঳য়যাধ কষ্টযো ঴তযা কযা, দভন কযা) them with kisses. If you're texting
your ex-boyfriend over 50 times a day, there's a pretty good chance that you still pine for
him.

In Old English, pine meant "to torture or cause to experience pain," which seems quite
fitting if you've known what it's like to pine for something or someone. The verb pine
should not be confused with the noun pine, as in the evergreen tree. If you are from the
Northeast and find yourself living in the Caribbean কযাষ্টযফীে, you may pine for the sight of
a pine tree, but the lovely weather should ease the pain.

Feeling a little saucy দুষ্টফন
ষ ীত? Perhaps a bit provocative — but in a good way? Then it's
safe to say your personality is a little piquant.

Coming to us from the French word piquer, which means "to prick(মখােঁিা মদত্তো, অনুপ্রাষ্টণত
কযা)," something that's piquant certainly piques your interest. Someone who's piquant
engages you with charm and wit. A story that's filled with piquant details has plenty of
juicy, provocative points. And grandma's homemade gravy ভাাংয়঳য য঳া মঝার? It's certainly

Mnemonics for pique
 (Tag: ) pique be pronounced as pic if you take the pic of a girl it arouses anger
 (Tag: ) sounds like peak. you are at your peak of anger.

The verb pique means to make someone angry or annoyed. But when something piques
your interest or curiosity, here the verb pique just means to arouse, stimulate, or excite.

Both the noun and verb are pronounced "pēk" and were borrowed from a French word
meaning "a prick, irritation," from Old French, from piquer "to prick." So you can see how
something that pricks you could make you both excited and angry. But it's frustrating––
enough to make you want to storm away from learning vocab. That storming away, by the
by, might be called a "fit of pique.

In botanical terminology, pith refers to a spongy, central cylinder of tissue found inside the

To pluck is to pick or pull a single item out of many, like a flower or a hair. As a noun,
pluck is energy or enthusiasm, even when things are looking grim(worrying, without
hope:).

Don't pluck only the best cherries off the tree: that's cherry-picking! Before you cook a
goose যাজ঴াং঳ী, you need to pluck its feathers. If it looks like your goose is cooked,
however, then show some pluck, and figure out a way to save yourself. Some characters
who are famous for showing pluck(to remove someone quickly from a dangerous or
difficult situation) include the Artful Dodger, Little Orphan Annie, and Benji the dog.
They all kept their chins up(something you say to someone in a difficult situation in order
to encourage them to be brave and try not to be sad) and kept on trying, even when things
looked really dark.

its pipes. To make carpentry(the art or technique of working wood) plumb, you get it
exactly vertical.

Originally, the verb plumb only meant ―to measure the depth of water.‖ These days, if
you ―plumb the depths‖ of something, you go in deep for knowledge and experience:

 (verb) to fall very quickly and suddenly:
House prices have plummeted in recent months. Several large rocks were sent

Selected Mnemonic for plummet
 (Tag: Global) Plummet sounds like Planet (something very very heavy) .. a heavy
thing will fall or drop sharply.
The verb plummet means "to drop sharply," like eagles that plummet toward earth, seeking
prey, or school attendance that plummets when there is a flu outbreak.

To correctly pronounce plummet, say "PLUH-met." This verb describes something that
drops sharply or quickly, like a roller coaster that plummets down a hill, temperatures that
plummet overnight, or sales of roses and candy that plummet after Valentine's Day. If
something plummets, this doesn't mean it will stay down or low forever, just that it has
experienced a sharp drop.

Ply means to work steadily at something. If you've got a lemonade stand and you're busy
perfecting your recipe and seeking out customers, you're doing a good job of plying your
trade.

A ship that regularly travels a particular route plies that route. When someone offers you
food or drink, often in hopes of getting something in return, they're plying you: "If I ply
you with cake, will you take my dog for a walk?" The noun ply is very different from the
verb, referring to layers or strands. Four-ply yarn is made up of four strands. Plywood is
made of many layers of wood glued together.

The noun pomposity means super-sized self-confidence. A person who thinks he or she is
better than every else suffers from pomposity — and everyone in that person's life suffers,
too.

Pomposity, pronounced "pahm-POSS-ih-tee," isn't just for arrogant people. Things can
have this unpleasant quality, too. For example, the pomposity (ষ্টনদারুণ আত্মম্ভষ্টযতা) of an
award ceremony that presents the winners and judges as the most important people who
ever lived will leave viewers cold. Language can also be a victim of pomposity — when
someone says, "We dined(মবাজ খাত্তো) at our beloved little bistro(খাফায়যয মদাকান)," another
person would say, "We ate at our favorite neighborhood joint."

Ponderous also describes a person's manner, or their manner of speaking. If it does, this is
a person you will want to avoid. They're solemn(গুরুগম্ভীয,ষ্টনযানি), speak slowly about
things that are boring.

 The new professor always pontificates

To pontificate is to talk in a dogmatic প্রশ্নাতীত ভতফাদ রূয়঩ উ঩স্থাষ্ট঩ত , মুষ্টক্তপ্রভাণ ফযষ্টতয়যয়ক

to be a know-it-all with very strong opinions and the urge to share them.

Pontificate comes from the French word pontiff, another word for the Pope, the leader of the
Roman Catholic Church. As a verb (pronounced pon-TIF-i-kate), it meant "to perform the
functions of the Pope or other high official in the Church." The noun pontificate (pronounced
pon-TIF-i-kit) refers to the government of the Roman Catholic Church. Another word for this is
the papacy.

Pimples form when pores become blocked with dirt.
 (verb)to look at and study something, usually a book or document,

He pored over the letter searching for clues about the writer.
synonyms : center , centre , concentrate , focus , rivet

That trickle of sweat didn't just miraculously appear — it was secreted out of a pore, a
really tiny opening on the surface of your skin.

When used as a noun, pore means any tiny hole or opening that allows the passage of
liquid. In humans, pores are the little holes that bring us such pleasures as armpit(ফগয়রয)
sweat and, when clogged, pimples. But when used as a verb, to pore means to concentrate
your attention on or devote hours of focus to something: like poring over the
overwhelming(অপ্রষ্টতয়যাধয) choices in the antiperspirant aisle(কষ্টযয়িায).

Use the adjective posterior to describe something that's in the back. It’s often used in
anatomy — a posterior cerebral artery supplies blood to the back of the brain, and the tail
is on the posterior of a fish.

The prefix post means ―after,‖ and things that are posterior come after the things in the
front. The opposite of posterior is anterior, which refers to the front, usually of body parts.
You can also use the word posterior to jokingly refer to the part of your body that you sit
on — your backside. Posterior is also a formal way to say later in time.

Precipitate usually means "bringing something on" or "making it happen" — and not
always in a good way

Precipitate, as a verb, can also mean specifically, "to fall from clouds," such as rain, snow,
or other forms of precipitation. When used as an adjective, precipitate means "hasty(ত্বষ্টযত ,
দ্রুতগষ্টত)" or "acting suddenly." If you decide to throw your class project in a trash
masher just because someone in your class had a similar idea, then your actions might
be described as precipitate. Or if you do that sort of thing regularly, you may be a
precipitate person.

Pretext is a false reason given for doing something. If you catch your mother going through
your drawers(ড্রোয,জাষ্টঙ্গো), and she says she was just tidying(঩ষ্টযষ্কায,঩ষ্টয঩াটি,ষ্টছভছাভ) up,
cleaning was her pretext for snooping (to try to find out about other people's private lives;
অয়নযয ফযা঩ায়য নাক গরায়না).

Sometimes a government will try to take away its citizens' rights under the pretext of
national security. Though pretext sounds like text that comes before other text, the text you
see in it is actually more closely related to the word textile, which meaning fabric. Its Latin
root meant pretty much "to pull the wool over someone's eyes."

prevailed upon him to recognize pets.

Prevail can be used for different kinds of success. If you prevail upon someone, you have

 (Tag: ) Person with exceptional talents is proud ji(prodigy)

A prodigy is someone who is so naturally talented at something that they become a master
of that particular skill as a child––you can be a musical prodigy or a math prodigy. Mozart
was one, writing symphonies and playing for kings when he was only five years old.

Prodigy is one of those wonderful words whose different meanings tell a story about how
the meanings of words bloom over time. The word derives from the Latin prodigium,
meaning an omen or a sign of something to come. Prodigies are kids who often seem so
talented that their success must presage(঩ূফর
ষ ক্ষণ) even greater mastery (মেষ্ঠতা,আষ্টধ঩তয).

(noun) the trait of spending extravagantly

অষ্টফয়ফিক , মফ঩য়যাো), sensual pleasure with no thought of possible consequences, then you
are living a life of profligacy, and probably spending a lot of money to get it. How wasteful!

The idea of a loose, dissipated (অ঩িে কযা) life, is seen in the noun profligacy, which
comes from the Latin prōflīgātus, meaning "corrupt or dissolute(কাভা঳ক্ত , িষ্টযত্র঴ীন ,
উচ্ছৃঙ্খর)." It's been said Americans live in a state of profligacy with regard to petroleum use,
168 | P a g e
wasting it in the manufacture of everything from water bottles to nail polish to traffic cones.
Someday this profligacy will catch up to us, however. With rising gasoline prices, perhaps it
already has!

get your charge card bill.

Any time someone behaves in a reckless, amoral, or wasteful way, they are engaging in
profligate behavior. It usually refers to financial behavior but can cross over to social
activity as well.

Extravagantly(঳ীভা-রঙ্ঘনকয , অ঳াংলত) profligate behavior is often wildly fun but usually


comes with a heavy price to pay in the morning, both financially and morally.

Use promiscuous to describe someone who has sex with many different partners.

Long ago promiscuous described a disorderly(অ঩ষ্টয঩াটি , ঱াষ্টন্তবঙ্গকাযী) mixture of people


and things. Today it is used as the opposite of monogamous to mean "with many different
sexual partners." It is a disapproving term that can describe people or behavior. Sometimes
you can use the word humorously(মখোর). If you are culinarily(যান্না ফা যান্নাঘয ঳ম্বন্ধীে)
promiscuous, you like different types of food. If something is not used selectively, it can be
called promiscuous too like the promiscuous use of force.

 (Tag: ) I prompted myself to promote my knowledge

A prompt is a cue that gives forgetful actors a hint for their next line, or students the topic
of the essay they will write. It can also be the act of inspiring action, like your letter to the
editor that prompts others to join your cause.

When you prompt someone, you might offer a reminder, some assistance(঳঴ােতা), or even
inspiration to do something. For example, honking(মবেঁ ঩ু) your car's horn prompts your
friend to get moving, or your standing up for a classmate that prompts a bully(ভস্তান,তজষ ন-
গজষ ন কষ্টযো ঱া঳ান, বাড়ায়ট গুণ্ডা, দুফয়ষ রয উত্঩ীড়ক) to change his ways. When you prompt
someone, you expect action now. This sense of speediness is also found in the adjective
form of prompt, as in the prompt response that is required to win a contest.

To promulgate is to officially put a law into effect. Your state may announce a plan to
promulgate a new traffic law on January 1st.

Laws aren't the only things you can promulgate. The word promulgate comes from the
Latin word promulgatus, meaning "make publicly known." Someone can promulgate
values, belief systems, and philosophies — it just means they're promoted or made
public. For example, you might write an article to promulgate the benefits of eating only
organic foods.

The path of least resistance is where you'll find prone: it refers to whatever you're likely to
do.

The Latin root of this word is pronare which means to bend forward, and it's a handy way
to remember both meanings. If you tend to wait to start your term paper until the night
before it's due, you are prone to procrastination(দীঘষ঳ূত্রতা) — you bend toward it. If you
stay up so late you fall asleep face down in the book, you are now prone at your desk.

The word prostrate traces back to the Latin word prostratus, meaning ―thrown down.‖ If
you are prostrate, you feel thrown down and laid flat. It can describe lying on the ground in
a helpless position, or it can be used to describe someone who has been overcome or made
unable to function, such as someone who is prostrated by grief or illness.

leading figure in a real-life situation: "Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis were the
protagonists of the U.S. Civil War." Don't use it to mean "a supporter of an idea or cause";
the word you're looking for in that situation is proponent প্রফক্তা.

tastes.

Individuals or groups of people who are considered narrow-minded are often labeled
provincial, even if they're from the city.

Mnemonics for purport

180 | P a g e
 (Tag: English) PURPORT:PURPOSE
 (Tag: ) purport is to extra support for the claim

Use purport when you want to convince people about something that might not be true, like
when you purport that the dog ate your homework.

The verb purport can mean "to claim" — whether you mean it or not — or "to intend," like
when you purport to study all night. So it makes sense that as a noun, purport means the
intention or purpose, like the purport of political candidate's speech was to get your vote. If
the speech was long and hard to follow, you might be lucky just to get the purport, which
here means "the main point or meaning."

ফা ঳ং঱য়
Definition
(noun) uneasiness about the fitness of an action
Synonyms : misgiving , scruple

Definition
(noun) a mild state of nausea
Synonyms : queasiness , squeamishness

A qualm is a feeling of uneasiness, or a sense that something you're doing is wrong, and it sounds
almost like how it makes your stomach feel. If you had qualms about taking candy from the bulk
bins at the store, your conscience probably told you to go back to the cashier and pay.

Qualm entered English in the 16th century, with meanings like "doubt" and "uneasiness." Usually a
qualm comes from doubt about an action and a feeling that you are doing, or are about to do, something
wrong. It isn’t a bad feeling about another person's behavior but about your own. If you have qualms
about lying to get into the over-18 dance club, you might decide to follow your gut-check and meet your
friends for coffee instead.

whole world in flames; philosophy quenches them.‖

(verb) to make an organization or system more effective by
introducing new methods, ideas, or people:

When you make something young again or give it more life and energy, you rejuvenate it.
For example, you can often rejuvenate a not-quite-dead plant, bringing it back to health
with some water and some TLC.

One way to remember the word rejuvenate is to pick it apart to its heart, the juve. This
juve sounds like juvenile — which refers to youth. Add the prefix re, which means
"again," and the "ate" suffix, which stands for "do or make." Put them all together and you
get "make young again" — the meaning of rejuvenate. We all want to be younger, as
witnessed by all the ads for products that promise to rejuvenate us through special
cosmetics or foods or exercise equipment.

storehouse, right? Think of a repository as somewhat more important and imposing than
just a place to dump stuff. It has more of an air of authority, like the things stored there
could change the world. Consider nuclear waste — would you rather store it in a dump or
a repository? I don’t know about you, but I'd prefer the latter—sounds safer.

re+PRESS...crush or impell forcibly not to do a thing

Whether you're repressing a feeling, an idea or even a revolution you're almost always
going to be taking advantage of the press in repress. To repress something is to "press it
down" where it can't be seen, heard or even recognized.

Psychologists often try to help people recover memories that they've repressed so that they
can feel free of them once and for all. What makes repress different from press is that
repress is almost always used when you're talking about an idea, concept or something
intangible. In other words, you repress, say, your emotions. You don't repress olives to
get olive oil. However, you can repress someone or some group by intimidating them —
like repressing the protesters by sending out cops on horseback.

Congressmen resign after a scandal. Coaches resign after a really terrible season. Regular
folks simply resign when they're ready to go. In those cases, resign is a nicer way of
saying quit. Being resigned is another sense of this word — it's a type of acceptance. If
your team is losing 80-20, you might as well resign yourself to losing. That just means
you aren't in denial.

explanation" or "a solution"; when a problem, conflict or mystery reaches its resolution, it
has been "undone উনন্঩াপিত," so to speak. Another common meaning is "determination,
resolve": "Jose approached the task with resolution." A related sense is "a decision to do
something": "My resolution is to go to the gym three times a week."

Resonant effect in physics, realated to sound echo

Resonant describes sound that is deep and rich. It also can mean deeply evocative(making
you remember or imagine something pleasant). A resonant speech moves you by bringing
to mind all that is good in the world: family, friends, laughter.

Resonant comes from the Latin re, meaning again, and sonare, meaning to sound––or
literally to sound again or echo. So resonant's meanings all have that sense of
reverberating প্রপতধ্বপনত ঵ওো বা করাননা or echoing. Not only does it mean echoing or
evoking meaning, but it also refers to sound that echoes through a room. Don't confuse the
spellings of resonant (the adjective) and resonate (the verb).

respite from the intensity.

Respite may look like it rhymes with despite, but this word has a stress on its first syllable
(RES-pit). It comes from the Latin word respectus, meaning refuge, but we almost always
use respite to describe a time, not a place, of relief. If you've been fighting with your
partner, a visit from a friend might offer a brief respite from the argument, but the fight
will pick up again when she leaves.

Movie bank robbers always seem to pull some kind of ruse, a deceptive trick or tactic like
hiding the money underneath the bank while they drive off in the getaway car to avoid
capture by the police.

The wife planning a surprise birthday party for her husband could send him out to the
supermarket as a ruse, a trick so she could sneak one hundred of his closest friends into
the house without him noticing.

Think of RUST, which reminds us of something which is old or has worn out, hence country
people are old fashioned, rural or slightly backwards
rustic=ruralistic

When you think of the word rustic, think of the rural country. This word can be given a
positive or a negative spin depending on how you use it.

The words rustic and "rural" spring from the same ancient root:*rur-, which means "open
space" in the hypothetical ancestor language Proto-Indo-European. In early usage, these
two words were used interchangeably, but now, rural is used to describe locations –-
"rural community," "rural location" — whilerustic refers to the unrefined qualities
associated with country life. The best antonym is cosmopolitan পবশ্বেনীন, which implies
the sophistication ঴র঱তাবপেত ত করা, পলপক্ষত, ঴ংস্কৃ পত঴ম্পন্ন বা িপরলীপ঱ত কনর রতা঱া and

lusty, dirty details you probably don't want to hear.

obscene ঄িী঱ reports. Salacious things are usually not fit for general public consumption
and probably need some kind of parental guidance warning.

As a noun salvage is the act of rescuing stuff from a disaster like a shipwreck or fire — or

item, or more generally to save something from harm or ruin. If you want to salvage your
grade, you need to stop gaming so much and start studying more.

The sanctimonious person sounds like a hypocrite (বণ্ড) when he preaches (ধশ্লভপ া঩শ্লে঱
দেত্তয়া) to a friend about the evils of drugs, while he drinks one beer after another.

Sanctimonious is a twist on the words sanctity and sacred, which mean holy or religious. A
sanctimonious person might think he's holy, but their attitude comes across more like
"holier-than-thou." Though sanctimonious people might try to act like saints, their actions
are far from pure or holy, which just makes them sound like hypocrites.

If you're sanguine about a situation, that means you're optimistic that everything's going to
work out fine.

Sanguine is from Latin sanguis "blood" and originally meant "bloody" — in medieval
medicine it described someone whose ruddy complexion was a sign of an optimistic
outlook. That was back when people thought that "bodily humors" like blood were
responsible for your attitudes. Now that we no longer believe in humors, sanguine has
settled down as a fancy way to say someone is cheerfully confident. Experts are frequently
described as feeling sanguine about a political or economic situation.

Satyr অধপভানফ ও অধপ঩শুরূ঩ী ভানফ দেফিা sa·tyr [sáytər, sáttər]
man with strong sexual desires; a god in Greek literature
Definition
(noun) man with strong sexual desires
Synonyms : lech , lecher , letch
(Noun) a god in Greek literature who is half man and half goat
ynonyms : forest god
Mnemonics for satyr
 (Tag: ) Remember Sati Devi (wife of Lord Shiva, prior to Shiva marrying Parvati).
Her father (Daksha) was a human with a goat's head.

In classical mythology, satyrs were companions to Pan আশ্লকপস্থডয়া-ফা঳ীশ্লেফ উ঩া঳য


঳ঙ্গীিস্থপ্রয় ও ছাগ঳েৃ঱ ঩েস্থফস্থ঱ষ্ট ঩শু঩ার চযণবূস্থভ ও ফনবূস্থভয গ্রীকশ্লেফিা, a fertility god,
and Dionysus, the god of wine and ecstasy. As you might guess, satyrs were not known for
their mild-mannered ways: Like their patrons (যক্ষাকিপা), they were excessively fond of
women, drink, and song.

In Greek art, the satyr was depicted as a man with the ears and tale of a horse. Roman
artists emphasized this creature's relationship to the goat-god Pan by giving the satyr a
goat's ears, horns, and haunches (পনতম্ব). In both cases, the satyr's animal aspect symbolized
his immoderate appetites. This noun can also be used metaphorically for a man whose
sexual desire is stronger than his sense of decency (লা঱ীনতা).

(noun) diagram of an electrical or mechanical system
Synonyms : schematic drawing

Definition
(adj) represented in simplified or symbolic form
Synonyms : conventional , formal
Mnemonics for schematic
 (Tag: ) SCHEMATIC or SIMPLISTIC - simplified or in the form of a diagram.

Use the adjective schematic to describe a drawing that's very simple and symbolic. That
drawing your cousin made of a house with a pointy roof, smiling stick figures, and a round
yellow sun? Very schematic.

The word schematic can apply to ideas as well as drawings. In this


case, schematic describes an overly simple interpretation of something complex, like a
work of literature or a detailed plan for social change. Think of it like the drawing of a
boxy house and stick figures, only applied to ideas — it's an outline of something that may
not capture all the important details.

Scintilla is a long word for describing a tiny thing. It comes sandwiched between the
words a and of in phrases like ―a scintilla of doubt‖ or ―not a single scintilla of evidence.‖
If you’re uncertain of the pronunciation, remember: it rhymes with chinchilla and the c is
silent, just like in science. Similar words you can use to talk about tiny bits of something
are iota (঄তযল্প িপরমাণ), smidgen (a very small amount), speck (কপণকা), and whit (কণা)

A set of twenty things is a score. Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address began "Four
score and seven years ago." Four score means 4 times 20, so Lincoln could have just said
"87 years ago," but it didn't have the same ring to it!

In a game, the score tells you the number of points each team has. In school, you can score
or earn a number of points for every test or paper you turn in. That grade (or an
accumulation of grades) is your class score. Score can also be used to describe the facts
about an event or the components of a musical composition. So, when you ask, "What's
the score?" you could be met with a variety of answers depending on the context!

him down...S-CUFF-LE

41 | P a g e
 (Tag: ) SCUFFLE or TUSSLE which are rhyming words refer to a confused struggle.

As both a noun and a verb, scuffle involves an all-out brawl (a noisy, rough, uncontrolled
fight). As a noun, it is the clash (঳ংঘশ্ললপ স্থরপ্ত ঴ওয়া) itself, like a scuffle between sworn
enemies (Sworn enemies are people who will always hate each other), or as a verb, it refers
to the actual fighting, like a bully who will scuffle with just about anyone.

A scuffle is not an organized bout: it is a free-for-all, with fists flying in any and all
directions. As a verb, it tells about the act of this kind of wild fighting, like angry kids who
scuffle to try to settle their problems, but it can also mean "dragging one's feet while
walking." Here, the meaning is not related to fighting, but rather the sound made by those
shuffling feet.

To sear something is to quickly cook or burn its surface by applying intense heat. When
making beef stew বাশ্ল঩ স্থ঳দ্ধ ঴ত্তয়া, the color and flavor are usually better if you sear the
meat first.

Sear comes from the Old English word searian which meant ―dry up‖ or ―wither পনেীব
করা.‖ Typically, the verb sear now refers to burning or scorching (অগনন ঝ঱ন঴ রিওো)
something with heat. An unpleasant image can be seared into your memory, meaning you
can't forget it.

Secrete is all about secrets. It means both "to hide" and "to release." When you squeeze a
lemon, it secretes juice. When you stuff your money in a mattress, you secrete it there.

It's easy to remember that secrete's all about secrets when you see the word secret
inside secrete. Imagine the first person who squeezed a lemon and secreted the juice.
Probably felt like he'd discovered a secret stash ঱ুক্কাপেত িান of citrus goodness. If he was
greedy, maybe he gathered all the lemons he could find and secreted them away in a box so
no one else would learn the secret of the juice-secretion.

room with a door, used for storing things, especially clothes) gives the semblance, or false
appearance, that you've done your laundry — but the stench (েুগপন্ধ) might give you away.

Semblance comes from the 14th-century French word for "resemble," and it is a noun for
things that look one way on the outside but are very different on the inside. A popular
combination is to say that a person or place has the "semblance of order," when,
underneath, everything is out of control.

Sensual means physically pleasing. It often is used in a sexual context, but is not

Sensual has to do with the five senses, but it comes with a hint of lewdness (ফযস্থবচায), a
suggestion of sex. Although you could have a sensual meal or experience that doesn’t
involve romance, if you want a word that refers to the five senses without any unsavory
(অরুস্থচকয) connotations, use its cousin sensuous.

 (Tag: Global) SEQUESTER ~ se (seek) + quester (questions) :
He sequestered himself in his science books to find answers to questions

The word sequester describes being kept away from others. If your sister tells you to stay
out of the way so she can cook dinner for her new boyfriend, you might sequester yourself
in your room.

Legal types may be familiar with the word sequester since it’s often used in relation to a
jury for an important trial. In that case, members of the jury are sequestered, meaning they
aren't allowed to watch the news or read articles that could influence their judgment.
However, sequester can describe anyone who is isolated or hidden away from others, like a
pop star sequestered in a hotel room, protected from fans' mania (উন্঩াি) below.

The small, simple building in your yard where you keep tools or gardening equipment is a

verb meaning "to cast off," like when a snake sheds its skin. If your couch িা঱ঙ্ক is covered
in fur িলম, it might be because your dog is shedding. You can shed non-physical things,
like a bad habit. Does your cat shed? If so, maybe I should sleep in the shed since I'm
allergic.

Mnemonics for sheer

50 | P a g e
 (Tag: ) SHEER and CLEAR which are rhyming words refer to something that is clean
and pure.

If people can see through your shirt, it's sheer. This can also mean something steep, like a
cliff েুযাশ্লযা঴ ঩ফপিগাত্র, or anything extreme, like sheer nerve.

This word has several meanings, but they're all extreme. A sheer (see-through) shirt is an
extreme way to dress — climbing a sheer cliff (িুরানরা঵ িবততগাত্র) is almost impossible. If
your car sheers, it swerves (অিমকা িথ-িপরবতত ন) sharply, and you might crash. Maybe
you've met all these meanings in a single nightmare: When the sheer cloth blew over your
face as you drove, you lost control and the car began to sheer(অিমকা িথ-িপরবতত ন), filling
you with sheer(pure) terror (প্রিণ্ড ভীপত) as you went over the sheer cliff.

Use the noun shrew — at your own risk — to refer to a woman who is argumentative,

The noun shrew can also refer to a mouse-like animal with tiny eyes, a long snout (the nose
and mouth which stick out from the face of some animals), and a sharp bite. Superstitions
associated with this small mammal led people in the thirteenth century to use the
word shrew to describe a spiteful person, male or female. The word later came to be used to
51describe
| P a g e a nagging, ill-tempered woman, as in William Shakespeare's The Taming of the
Shrew. Unless you are a famous dead author, however, you may want to steer clear of this
one in conversation: it’s considered offensive.

The adjective sibylline means "having a secret meaning" or "foretelling the future," like a
fortune teller whose crystal ball reveals a sibylline message about what will happen.

If you can predict the meaning of the word sibylline, you may come from a family of
psychics — or you may have a background in Greek mythology. The word has origins in
the Greek word Sibulla, meaning "prophetess." Back in the times of the Greeks and
Romans, a sibyl was a female oracle who delivered cryptic র঵঴যিূণত prophecies ভপব঳যদ্রৃানী
foretelling the future, often inspired by the deities. The adjective sibylline describes such
talents or the messages they reveal.

through the hundred applications you get from drummers eager to join your band, to find
Ms. Right. When you're at the beach, you can sift sand through your fingers, and you might
see big machines that sift the sand to clean it.

 Mnemonics for sinewy
 (Tag: math) Like 'sine' in maths(trigonometry) - which was tough to understand at
first
 (Tag: ) sinewy - SINfully HEAVY, ewy sounds like heavy.

Something muscular, with a tight and stretched toughness, is sinewy. Tennis players' lean
(চস্থফপ঴ীন) arms have a sinewy beauty, all the muscles showing as they hit their smoking
serves.

A sinew is a tendon that attaches muscles to bones, and something sinewy has a lot of sinew
or shows a lot of built-up tissues. If you're a carpenter or a piano player, you probably have
well-exercised, sinewy hands and fingers. Lines in nature, such as tree limbs and roots, can
be sinewy too. Being sinewy is attractive when it's in good health, but it can also make you
look too stretched or thin, even scrawny (঄পি঴ার). Tough meat can be sinewy and
unchewable.

Skewed স্থিমপক

because not all our customers have paid their bills.

55 | P a g e
Something skewed is slanted (দ঴রা) or off-center in some way. A picture frame or
viewpoint can be skewed.

This is a word, like so many, that can apply to physical things or ideas. A painting on the
wall is skewed if it's leaning {to (cause to) slope in one direction, or to move the top part of
the body in a particular direction} to one side. Also, opinions are often skewed: this is
another way of saying someone is biased. People often accuse news reports of being
skewed toward one political viewpoint. A movie could be skewed toward one character
more than the other. When you think of skewed, think of leaning and slanting (র঵঱াননা) of
all sorts.

Skulking is cowardly. It means hiding out, either because you're trying to pull something
off in secret, or you're trying to get out of doing something you're supposed to be doing.

If you cut school, it makes sense to do it in the style of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," and
enjoy yourself. Will the punishment be worse than if you skulk around town, avoiding
teachers and people your parents know, not doing anything you really want to do?

If you slow down at the end of a race, you slack off. When you use slack this way, it means
to reduce your speed, to be sluggish, or to be negligent.

If something is loose, it's also said to be slack. A clothesline, for example, is slack if it is
just hanging loosely between two trees. If you pull the clothesline tight, you reduce the
slack. The root word of slack is the Old English word slæc, which means loose or careless.
When you scold your friend for being careless about his responsibilities, you can say, "Pick
up the slack!"

your thrist after seeing the water in that lake .
 (Tag: English) Lake ... When camel, which is going through desert, finds a lake.
What will it do? Just drink the water, which takes its thirst away.

When you slake something, such as a desire or a thirst, you satisfy it. A big glass of
lemonade on a hot summer day will slake your thirst.

The word slake traces back to the Old English word slacian, meaning to ―become less
eager.‖ If you slake something, like thirst, you become less eager to drink. In other words,
you are less thirsty. Like satisfy and quench, close relatives of slake in meaning, the word
is used to indicate that a craving is made less intense by getting whatever it is that you
crave.

 (Tag: ) slapdash:when you dash (Destroy or break) someone they slap you for your
slapdash.
 (Tag: ) a girl slapped you for dashing her..and after the slap, your head revolves and
you walk in random fashion :D

If you just slapped something together and then dashed (when you run somewhere very
quickly) when you were done, it was slapdash. The paint job was slapdash: it looked like
they did it in an hour, without brushes.

The meaning of the word slapdash is clear from its two parts, slap and dash. If you make
something in a slapdash way, you slap it together and then dash away — probably so no
one would notice. If you want something to look great and last for a long time, then take
your time and do it right. If you do it in a slapdash way, you may save time in the short
run. But in the long run, you'll lose much more time redoing your shoddy (নক঱ ত্ত বানে)
work.

 the seamy side of life
 sleazy characters hanging around casinos
 sleazy storefronts with...dirt on the walls
 the sordid details of his orgies stank under his very nostrils
 the squalid atmosphere of intrigue and betrayal

Something that is sleazy is low and nasty (অিযন্ত দনাংযা). It’s a perfect word to describe
characters like the sleazy door-to-door con men (a person who deceives other people by
making them believe something false or making them give money away) who cheat old
ladies into selling them their jewelry at a deep discount.

Sleazy originally meant flimsy(যুপি঵ীন), but nowadays it’s only used to describe morally
degraded people or places. Usually it refers to sexual behavior, but it is often associated
with people trying to swindle others as well. It’s not as bad as perverse or criminal, which
suggest that a line has been crossed. But sleazy people make you feel uncomfortable, for
sure.

 that movie was the sleeper of the summer

A sleeper is something that succeeds when no one thought it would. That low-tech movie
about shark attacks that you shot on vacation and edited in your basement? It could be a
sleeper if you market it in the right way.

You probably know that sleeper can be used in an obvious sense to refer to someone who
is asleep. But you also may hear the word used to describe something that becomes an
unexpected success, like "a sleeper of a film" featuring unknown actors that ends up
becoming the big summer hit. This sense of the word may have originated in the world of
gambling in the nineteenth century. When a card player unexpectedly drew a winning card,
the card was called "a sleeper."

If you lounge (ধীযভন্থয গস্থিশ্লি চরা) around in your bathrobe (a loose-fitting piece of
clothing like a coat worn before or after a bath) watching TV and ordering out for pizza,
you'll get called a sloth (unwillingness to work or make any effort). A sloth is actually a
slow-moving, tree-dwelling mammal, but it has become a synonym for 'lazybones.'

Slug also doubles as the name of an animal and a term for someone who is lazy, slow or
lethargic. But with slug, the animal name probably morphed into the human application,
whereas sloth has meant "lazy person" or "laziness" for a long time.

smothered by someone.

The word smother literally means to deprive of oxygen, so it can be used to refer to
someone who gets suffocated by a pillow. In everyday conversation, the word is often used
to refer to the act of making someone feel like they’re being deprived of oxygen or
personal space. If you have a mother who likes to smother you by asking where you're
going every time you see her, then it's likely you’re already dreaming of moving out!

 (Tag: ) snicker.....wecan say after eating snickers chocolate our laugh is supressed

A snicker is a disrespectful snort of half-suppressed laughter, often expressing superiority.


We snicker at beauty queens talking about world peace, for example.

Used indiscriminately with the word snigger (to laugh at someone or something childishly
and often unkindly), though snigger tends to have a more specifically sexual tone. As in, "I
couldn't help but snicker when the Customs Officer said: 'Next time please declare your
nuts.'" Try saying that without sniggering or snickering.

To snub is to ignore or refuse to acknowledge someone. If you want to snub your former
best friend, you can refuse to even look at her when you pass in the hallway.

When you snub someone, you deliver an insult by pretending to not even notice someone
that you know. There’s an element of disdain and rejection to a snub, as if you’re too good
to even acknowledge the person. As a noun, a snub is that act of cold rejection. Your
former friend probably noticed the snub, and she’ll probably snub you from now
on. Snub also means "very short," like the nose on a bulldog.

Mnemonics for soar


 (Tag: ) soar== so + air .. something is in the air...

To soar means more than just to fly; it means to rise swiftly, to feel the wind slipping
below you as you ride it higher, higher, higher. Flying is just moving through the
air. Soaring, though, suggests exhilaration (উিা঳), even joy.

Think about the anticipation (প্রতযালা) you feel when you buy a lottery ticket — your hopes
soar as you contemplate (গভীরভানব পিন্তা করা) the possibilities. It's the same wonderful
feeling you get when someone you have a crush on notices you, when you land that perfect
job, when you hold your child. The word soar comes from the Latin, ex-, which means
"out," and aura, meaning "breeze, air," together meaning "out of the air," which is
precisely how it feels to soar.

Mnemonics for sober


 Light SABERS used in STAR WARS are unrealistic, thier opposites... sober, being
realistic
 (Tag: ) A person who sobs is very serious,at that time at least

This adjective means the opposite of playful or drunk. When attending a funeral
(দ঱াকজনক), you are expected to be sober in both senses.

The most common meaning of sober is "not drunk" — people who drive need to be
sober. Sober sounds a lot like somber মপ঱ন ত্ত পব঳ণ্ণ, and it often means sad and quiet too,
or sometimes too serious. Another meaning is to be logical or realistic about something.
Sometimes sober means drab: a grey station wagon is a more sober vehicle than a hot red
convertible (িপরবতত নীে). All of these meanings are quiet and restrained — unlike a person
who has had a lot to drink.

Sobriety ঳ংমভ, অপ্রভাে so·bri·e·ty [sə br ətee, sō br ətee]
moderation (especially regarding indulgence in alcohol); seriousness

Definition
(noun) moderation in or abstinence from alcohol or other drugs
Synonyms : dryness

Definition
(noun) a manner that is serious and solemn
Synonyms : graveness , gravity , soberness , somberness ,sombreness

Definition
(noun) abstaining from excess
Synonyms : temperance

Sobriety is the state of being sober, which can mean either not intoxicated উন্঩াস্থেি or
being solemn (ভস্থরন ত্ত স্থফলণ্ণ). If he takes a drink, an alcoholic ends a stretch (স্থফস্তৃ ি
কযা) of sobriety. You might note sobriety in the stands when your team is losing.

When thinking about sobriety, think about the Puritans(someone who believes that it is
important to work hard and control yourself, and that pleasure is wrong or unnecessary:),
and the way they kept the Sabbath রপববার. For them, even laughing on a Sunday was seen
as an excessive display. Known for sobriety, they preferred a day marked by prayer and
contemplation ঄নুলী঱ন. It goes without saying that they frowned upon the consumption of
any form of alcohol––favoring sobriety of both kinds.

Probably all three, right? Well, don't worry. Instead of just screwing up, what table
you did was commit a solecism. Sounds kind a neat that way, huh?

The origin of solecism comes from the ancient Greek word meaning "speaking
incorrectly," and solecism does have another meaning that's more specifically
verbal. If you say something incorrectly, or make a grammatical error in
writing, that's also a solecism. It can be just as mortifying (঄িমানেনক; to
cause someone to feel extremely ashamed) as burping (to allow air from the
stomach to come out through the mouth in a noisy way) at the dinner table.
Well, almost.

Solicit means to ask for. It is what those people on the street are doing, when they ask, "Do
you have a moment to talk about the destruction of the planet?" They are soliciting
donations (োন) for their cause.

Solicit has an official sounding impressiveness to it––doesn't soliciting donations sound


better than begging for money? It can also have a more sinister (঄শুভ) cast (to look briefly
at something). "When the teacher left the room, two girls solicited their friends to throw all
the textbooks out the windows, injuring members of the cheer squad below — where they
were soliciting signatures for a petition (িরখাস্ত) banning smoking in the football locker
rooms."

Solvent দ্রফন঱স্থি঳ম্পন্ন, যনথষ্ট ঄থত sol·vent [sólvənt, sáwlvənt]

Mnemonics for solvent
 (Tag: ) sounds like "solve" + "rent". If u want to solve the issues related to rent then

Solvent’s meaning changes pretty drastically depending on its part of speech. As a noun,
solvent is either a certain kind of chemical or an idea that solves a problem. As an
adjective, solvent describes someone who's got cash on hand.

A solvent dissolves other chemicals, which is why it's also easy to remember: solvent is a
chemical used to dissolve other chemicals. The adjective solvent, on the other hand, comes
from a French verb that means "loosen." In these tough economic times, only those banks
that are solvent are in a position to loosen the cash flow and start lending money. No cash?
You're not solvent.

Sophomoric
a second-year undergraduate; silly and behaving like a child:
 (adj.) silly and behaving like a child:
a sophomoric sense of humour. The judge called the lawyer’s presentation
sophomeric

A sophomore (স্থফশ্বস্থফেযারশ্লয়য দ্বীিীয় ফশ্ললপ য ছাত্র ফা ছাত্রী) is in their second year, either in
high school or college. Once you became a sophomore, thinking you now knew
everything, you pitied (করুণা কযা, েয়া দেখান) the freshmen for their confusion over
how to write college papers.

Sophomore comes from the word sophism which means "a bad argument that's clever but
false," and that's sometimes how sophomores in college act. They're not bright-eyed
newcomers anymore, and think they know a lot, but really they've much to learn. We also
use the word for other seconds: a band's second album is usually called their sophomore
album.

A sound is a noise, something you can hear if you're in the right spot and it's loud enough.
A doorbell, a fire alarm, a cat's meow, or your brother's snoring — they’re all sounds.

Long Island Sound is another kind of sound — it’s a branch of the Atlantic Ocean that runs
between Connecticut and Long Island, New York. When you don’t know a word, you
might sound out the syllables — say them aloud — to figure out the pronunciation. Sound
can also mean "solid or good." Sound advice is good advice. Sound investments are secure.
When you have a sound sleep, it's restful and uninterrupted (একটানা) — at least until your
alarm sounds.

(঄বনল঳) part is a spare, you can spare a life when you save an animal or person, and you
have spare time when you finish a project early. If you "spare no expense" you spend lots
of money and when you spare a friend's feelings, you keep upsetting (পবিযতস্ত করা) details to
yourself. And if you have a moment to spare, you have time to share.

spectral.
When something is spectral, it has a ghostlike quality; it seems to vanish or disappear. You
may have heard of ghosts referred to as "specters": that means that they're spectral.

You may recognize the spect part of the adjective spectral from words like "spectacle,"
"spectrum," and "spectacular." All of these words share a similar meaning, which comes
from the Latin verb specere, "look at, view." When something is spectral, think of it as
something you can see but not touch — though it won't always mean that literally. The
young model was so skinny (঄পিিমত঴ার) she had a spectral quality: she almost seemed to
disappear.

Squalid োস্থযদ্রয঩ীস্থেি, দনাংযা

 (Adj.) (of situations and activities) immoral; involving sex and
drugs, etc. in an unpleasant way:
It's the usual squalid rock star tale of drugs, sex and overdoses

Squalid things appear neglected, or morally repulsive (নযক্কাযজনক,ফীবত্঳) in nature.

Squalid comes from the Latin word squalare, meaning to ―be covered with a rough, scaly
layer.‖ A few word evolutions later and we have squalid, a word that describes something
distasteful, dirty, unattractive, and as unkempt (এন঱ানথন঱া,঄মাপেত ত) in appearance as the
dry, scaly skin of an armadillo, or a room filled with pizza boxes, flickering (পঝপকপমপক)
light bulbs, and stained (িাগী) wallpaper. Squalid behavior is dirty, too, like cheating on a
test and lying about it.

Stark means "complete or extreme," like the stark contrast between your music taste —
punk and weird metal — and your mom's, with all her 1950's doo-wop favorites.

In describing a place, stark means "providing no shelter or sustenance." A barren desert or


a room with no furniture or curtain োন঱া বা িরোর িিত া s is stark. It can also mean "severe,
stern (If something, such as a job, is stern, it is difficult), or austere (without comfort; plain
and without decoration)," like the stark beauty of the rocky cliffs (a high area of rock with
a very steep side, often on a coast) in the west of Ireland. Stark can also be used to mean
"totally." If you are called stark, raving mad, there's no question about it: you are acting
completely crazy.

To be stately is to appear noble and impressive, almost in a larger than life kind of way.
You may encounter a stately gentleman or a stately statue. If you do, take a little bow
(নভস্কায).

There are a few meanings of stately, but they both refer to people and things that have an
impressive bearing. The first meaning has to do with nobility (উচ্চিিমযতািা) and class. A
ceremony honoring a prince is stately, and the music and dress surrounding such events are
stately. Stately things convey sophistication and regality (রােকীেতা). Also, stately can
mean statuesque (মপ঵মমে). Someone with great posture (঄িভপি) and an impressive
physique is stately, almost as if they were made by a sculptor (ভাস্কর).

To stifle is to cut off, hold back, or smother. You may stifle your cough if you don't want to

The verb stifle means ―to choke (শ্বা঴নরাি), suffocate (শ্বা঴নরাি করা), drown.‖ It can describe
a claustrophobic (অবদ্ধতার ঄নুভূপত - োগাননা) feeling, like getting smothered by kisses
from your great aunt. At its most extreme, stifle means to kill by cutting off respiration.
The metaphoric sense of stifle didn’t develop until well after the word was first recorded as
a verb: "I can always tell — but never let on for fear of damaging his ego — that my
boyfriend attempts to stifle tears during sappy parts of movies; his eyes well up at the
corners and he’ll sniffle uncontrollably, claiming allergies."

habit, which is often found among young children, of urinating while sleeping) can lead to
a social stigma for a six year old, while chewing tobacco might have the same effect for a
sixty year old.

Stigma, from the Greek word of the same spelling meaning "mark, puncture," came into
English through Latin to mean a mark burned into the skin to signify disgrace.

Unlike a project or vocation, a stint can refer to the stretch (প্র঴াপরত করা) of time spent

Corps. As a verb, stint means to be sparring তকত াতপকত করা or frugal পমতবযেী, or restrict in a
stingy কৃ িণস্বভাব manner ("to skimp"). "The school board chose to make cuts at the
administrative level, rather than stint on the children's education."

Stoop comes from the same root as steep. You can stoop to clear a doorway, or stoop
metaphorically, by lower your morals. If you used to be an honest garbageman (a person
whose job it is to empty people's dustbins and take the rubbish away) but now haul
র঵ুঁ িাোআো ঱আো যাওো "garbage" for the mafia, you have "stooped to their level." If you
slouch (঄বনপমত ঵ওো) and droop (ক্লাপন্তনত নুনে িো), you're stooping. When owls quickly
descend on their prey, that's also called stooping.

A stratum is a layer of something, whether abstract, like a social stratum composed of only
billionaires, or physical, like the different strata (that’s the plural version) of clouds that an
airplane passes through.

Stratum comes from the Latin meaning "something that has been laid down," like asphalt
পিি or a bedsheet, but we generally use it to describe layers of something. If you go into
geology, you will probably investigate different strata of the soil. If you start out in life poor
and try to become rich, you are trying to get into a different social stratum.

Stricture কশ্লঠায ঳ভাশ্লরাচনা stric·ture [stríkchər]


severe and adverse criticism; critical comments; limit or restriction

(Noun) (Criticism) a statement of severe criticism or disapproval:

প্রবৃত্ত ঵ত্তো) factions (পবনরািী ি঱).

CRITICEZES SEVERELY. And also constricts (limits)
 (Tag: ) When a girl has a good STRUCTURE.. every boy will CRITICIZE(Stricture)
her(in a good way though).
One meaning of stricture is a nasty criticism, while the other is a sharp contraction
঳ংশ্লকাচন of a tube or canal in the body. Either meaning can mean great pain to the person
experiencing the stricture.

The noun stricture finds its roots in the Late Latin word strictūra, which came from the
stem stringere, "to draw tightly." You might remember that meaning by its relationship
with the word constrict, meaning "to tighten or draw in." The additional meaning, that of
―a critical remark,‖ is often used in the plural form — like "the critical strictures against
cheating."

rules. Stringent safety procedures prevent accidents in a dangerous work environment. And
restaurants must adhere to stringent health regulations.

When something stultifies you, it drains you of your energy, enthusiasm, or pleasure. A
well-acted Shakespeare play can be a thrill. A poorly-acted one can stultify like nothing
else.

The verb stultify is sometimes used in place of "bore" or "exhaust," but only if something is
so boring or exhausting that it makes you feel as though you might just die. It's a very
negative word. If you're in a relationship that's stultifying, you should find a way out.
Relationships should make you feel more alive, not less. Constant construction noise can
have a stultifying effect, leaving a person almost unable to function.

While stumble often means to nearly fall, it can also mean to make a misstep of a different
kind. If you stumble over your words, you speak in a stuttering (রতাত঱াপম) confused
manner. Politicians make so many public decisions that they're bound to stumble — make a
mistake — occasionally. When you stumble on rare mushrooms, i.e. come across them
unexpectedly, be sure have the species verified before you eat them.

A person in a stupor is considered barely(দকফর) conscious or stunned (অশ্লচিন কযা); or, if


you consult Led Zeppelin lyrics: dazed (঴িফুস্থদ্ধ কযা) and confused.

Stupors can be brought on by drugs, alcohol, illness, or shocking news. You might doze off
(If you doze off, you start to sleep, especially during the day) with a lampshade (বাপতর
ঢাকনা) on your head if you’re in a drunken stupor. Medically speaking, a person in this state
responds only to pain. You can also be in a stupor if you’re in shock, like if your boss says
he's replacing you with a robot, or if Mister Ed the talking horse kicks you in the gut. Like
stupid, it comes from the Latin word stupere that means basically ―to be stunned(঄নিতন
করা).‖

Psychologists use the verb sublimate to describe the process of channeling intense energy
into something useful or appropriate. Sublimate is related to the word sublime — both
words come from the Latin word sublimare, which means "to rise up" or "to exalt উনচ্চ
িািন করা." So Freud's finally getting his own place is, arguably, a superior — a more
exalted — living situation.

To substantiate is to give support to a claim. We’d really like to believe in the Tooth Fairy;
however, more evidence is needed to substantiate her existence (besides that quarter in

Substantiate is related to the word substantial, which means "solid." So, to substantiate a
claim is to make it solid or believable. If the evidence given in support of an argument is
weak and unconvincing, that evidence can be described as insubstantial. Of course, in
special cases like the Tooth Fairy, having substantial evidence doesn’t seem to matter; fans
just keep on believing.

root is the Latin word sequi, "to attend or follow."

the supine ones"); or, if one is very passive or lethargic ("supine in the face of their threats
and insults").

The adjective supine comes from a Latin word, supinus, which means ―thrown backwards‖
or ―inactive.‖ Whenever a person or animal is lying on its back, belly-up, it is supine. When
your hand is open, palm-up, it is also supine. Supine can even describe a person who gives
insufficient resistance, or who is lazy and ineffectual.

Something or someone that is supple bends and moves easily, like a contortionist
পবভিপবননািক at a circus sideshow. If you can wrap your legs around your neck, you most
likely have a supple body.

Supple is often used as an adjective describing a body — such as a dancer’s; a fabric —


such as soft leather; or a sound — such as an accomplished (রুপি঴ম্পন্ন) singer’s voice. This
makes for a strange supple family, but all of its members can move with ease and
flexibility. More idiomatically, supple can also be used to describe a mind. In this sense, it
does not mean ―easily brainwashed,‖ but has a more positive association with the open-
mindedness of free-thinkers.

A surge is a sudden strong swelling, like a tsunami wave that engulfs the land. Although
a surge offers a fluid image, anything can experience a sudden surge, including emotions,
political support, or an angry mob হুেুনগ েন঴ািারণ.

The original Latin word surgere, meaning ―to spring up or rise,‖ serves as the basis for the
word surge, which refers to a great sudden growth or swelling. If you are watching a sad
movie and you experience a sudden surge of emotion, do you quietly reach for a tissue,
pretend something's in your eye, or simply weep and sob (রোুঁিাআনত রোুঁিাআনত ব঱া) with
reckless abandon. Yeah, me too.

Stupors can be brought on by drugs, alcohol, illness, or shocking news. You might doze off
(If you doze off, you start to sleep, especially during the day) with a lampshade (ফাততয
ঢাকনা) on your head if you’re in a drunken stupor. Medically speaking, a person in this state
responds only to pain. You can also be in a stupor if you’re in shock, like if your boss says
he's replacing you with a robot, or if Mister Ed the talking horse kicks you in the gut. Like
stupid, it comes from the Latin word stupere that means basically ―to be stunned(অড়েতন

freedom
They are bravely resisting subjugation by their more powerful neighbours.
 (verb) to treat yourself, your wishes or your beliefs as being less important than

Journalists must subjugate personal political convictions to their professional
commitment to fairness and balance
synonyms : keep down , quash , reduce , repress , subdue

If you say you won't be kept down by the man, you are saying that you won't let the
man subjugate you. To subjugate is to repress িমন করা someone, or to make them
subservient (ক্রীতো঳তু রয) to you.

In subjugate you see the word subject. In this word, it's not talking about the subject of a
sentence, rather it's talking about the kind of subjects that Kings have serving
them. Subjugate is to reduce someone's status to that of a subject. It's a royal demotion,
often brought by force or intimidation (হুভতক).

Psychologists use the verb sublimate to describe the process of channeling intense energy
into something useful or appropriate. Sublimate is related to the word sublime — both
words come from the Latin word sublimare, which means "to rise up" or "to exalt উনচ্চ

You might describe a spine-tingling piece of music as "a work of sublime beauty." With the,
the word also functions as a noun meaning "something that strikes (If a thought or idea

look beyond his own country for the sublime and beautiful of natural scenery," wrote

To substantiate is to give support to a claim. We’d really like to believe in the Tooth Fairy;
however, more evidence is needed to substantiate her existence (besides that quarter in
your pocket).

Substantiate is related to the word substantial, which means "solid." So, to substantiate a
claim is to make it solid or believable. If the evidence given in support of an argument is
weak and unconvincing, that evidence can be described as insubstantial. Of course, in
special cases like the Tooth Fairy, having substantial evidence doesn’t seem to matter; fans
just keep on believing.

Stifling (to prevent something from happening, being expressed or continuing), humid and
downright oppressive অচ্ছন্ন কনর এমন, sultry is an adjective that has everything to do with
sweltering ঄পতলে ঘামা heat and a definite need for a tall glass of iced tea.

You know how movies about the old south always show people wilting (to become weaker,
tired or less confident) in the shade of their front porches (ফাযান্দা), mopping (to use a cloth
or a mop to remove liquid from the surface of something) their damp brows? Well that's
because of the sultry summer weather. A sultry atmosphere is thick, almost swampy
(describes land that is soft and very wet) feeling. And all that heavy heat can certainly get
passions stirring — "a sultry look" is one that happens to express steamy (sexually exciting
or including a lot of sexual activity) desire.

slightly change the colour of something) white with red, you get pink. On the other hand,
if you taint something, you are somehow spoiling or corrupting it. If you taint meat with
the salmonella virus, you have a disaster and a public panic (অকপিক ভে, অতঙ্ক).

Tangible or say Physical - something that can be sensed or felt by touch.

want to shake their little green hands!"

Tangible is from Latin tangere "to touch," and it simply means something that can be
touched or felt, though it can be used in metaphorical senses: "tangible assets" have a
value that can be precisely measured, and "tangible grief" can be clearly sensed by an
onlooker (িলতক). So you might not need to physically touch something for it to be tangible,

stick around and take a long time to depart, sometimes lurking (িু পি঴ানর ঄বিান বা ি঱ানেরা

TEMP+ORAL--- relates to ORAL(speaking) IN TEMPLE--- relates to secular

Our time on earth is limited, or temporal.

Temporal comes from the Latin word temporalis which means "of time" and is usually
applied to words that mean not having much of it, such as the temp who works at an office
for a set amount of time, because temporary situations don't last long. A less common
word, temporality also means having limited time, and it rhymes with mortality! (Don't
remind us.) Temporal implies "of this earth," too — temporal boundaries keep us from
being able to fly around the clouds, but spiritual beings can zing around at
will. Temporal can also refer to temples, the ones on the side of your head that are
probably aching (িীঘতিােী রবিনা রভাগ করা) by now.

Use tenacious to mean "not easily letting go যাআনত রিত্তো or giving up," like a clingy child
who has a tenacious grip (েৃঢ়ভুস্থষ্ট) on his mother's hand.

A strong grip or an unyielding advocate ঴মথতক might both be described as tenacious, a


word whose synonyms include resolute (িৃঢ়তািূণ)ত , firm, and persistent. The word comes
from the Latin root tenax, which means "holding fast." The basketball commentator Marv
Albert, impressed by a defender's skill, once uttered the sound bite, "That's some
tenacious D!" ("D" is short for "defense.") The musicians Jack Black and Kyle Gass
borrowed the phrase for the name of their comedy-rock band, Tenacious D.

―lukewarm,‖ which before that came about from the Latin tepere, a verb meaning ―to be
warm.‖ Tepid people or things are lukewarm or lacking in enthusiasm or emotion. Bathwater

something that titillates does to the imagination. Today's media bombard you with images
made to titillate, from video game heroines with extreme physiques to casual nudity on
prime-time TV. But it doesn't have to be sex to titillate.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for tortuous


a tortoise does not move in straight line... it keeps twisting and turning making path
complicated.

tortuous - torque(twisting)uous: full of twisting

Tortuous means twisting or complicated. "James Bond drove his custom BMW 120 mph
on the road that was tortuous in its twists and turns. He had to stop the evil madman's plan
for world domination that was so tortuous even 007 could not understand it."

From Latin torquere "to twist," tortuous means something with twists and turns –– a path,
an argument, a story. It is important not to confuse it with torturous (to cause great
physical or mental pain to someone intentionally), which means characterized by great
pain.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for touchstone


divide it like touch+stone..so you touch gold with a stone to test the fineness of gold.

A TOUCHSTONE is a special kind of stone that measures the quality of gold. A slight rub
or touch on the stone gives you the standard of gold.

Use the noun touchstone to describe a basis for comparison. For example, a filmmaker's
touchstone might be her all-time favorite movie; she wants her movie to be that good or
similar to it in some way.

Touchstone as it is defined today comes from an actual stone. In the late 15th century, gold
and silver was rubbed, or touched against black quartz — the touchstone — to determine
the purity of the metals. This was done by looking at the color of the streaks left on the
stone. This is why a touchstone, in the figurative sense as it is used today, is a measuring
tool.

TOUCHY or MOODY (পব঳ণ্ণপ্রকৃ পত,঵তাল) - someone who is oversensitive and reacts to

Things that are touchy are hard to handle — not literally, but to talk about. Touchy subjects
make people upset.

There are a lot of touchy topics in life. Religion is a big one, since people have such
different yet strong beliefs. Racism and sexism are touchy. Politics can be touchy. Asking
someone how old they are or what they weigh are very touchy questions. Something is
touchy is you need to handle it with kid gloves — or maybe avoid the topic altogether.
People often use euphemisms (শ্রুপতকটু িনির িপরবনতত রকাম঱তর িনির প্রনোগ) — soft, evasive

them easier.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for transcendent


TRANSCENDENT, concentrate on TRANSCEND. We are familiar with the transcend pen
drive that is available in the market. It is of a SUPERIOR quality and SURPASSES all the
other brands.

TRANSCENDENT or an EXCELLENT state where one surpasses or goes beyond the range
of experience, belief etc.

Transcendent describes something so excellent that it's beyond the range of human
understanding.

Transcendent shares the prefix trans, meaning "across," with many familiar words such
as transport (carry across), transcontinental (across a continent), and transparent (light
shines across). Transcendental meditation carries people across to a higher consciousness.
So something transcendent goes across boring reality into super awesomeness in a world
all its own. It moves you. Angels are transcendent, and even your favorite novel can
be transcendent.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for transcribe


153 | P a g e
TRANSCRIBE = TRANSfer + SCRIBE(to write). So when you transfer some writings from
one book to other it means you COPY the writings.

Derived from the word TRANSCRIPT which means copy made from original.

If someone asks you to transcribe something, they want you to listen to it and write down
what was said, word for word. Speeches, interviews, and trials are often transcribed for
records.

From the Latin transcribere, which means ―to copy, write over, or transfer,‖ the
verb transcribe means just that: to write out a copy. You might want to transcribe a
recording of an interview onto paper, or maybe you need to transcribe all the notes you
collected from an important meeting. If you can remember that trans means ―over‖ and
that a scribe is a writer, you shouldn’t forget this word. Fun fact: to transcribe poorly is
to transcribble.

Trans + aggression....imagine the army of Pakistan aggressively crossing the Line of Control
(LOC) and hence violating the law trans(=across) border.

When you go beyond the boundaries, either physically or morally, you transgress. A river
will transgress its banks as it floods, and students who cheat transgress school rules.

Transgress sounds like and means nearly the same thing as trespass (঄নপিকার প্রনবল করা).
When you transgress a rule, you're breaking it. Religions often talk about transgressing: for
Christians, breaking a commandment (ননপতক উিনিল) is transgressing against God by
violating his wishes. Any transgression is pushing through a boundary: like a neighbor
transgressing by letting their dog into your yard: that's a physical and a legal type of
transgressing. The dog got into your territory (এ঱াকা), and the owners broke a rule.

Use the adjective transient to describe something that always changes or moves around,
like how a teenage girl can have a temporary crush on one boy one week and another boy
the next week.

Transient is most often used to modify nouns like nature, threat, source and cause, which
suggests that the word often shows up in formal contexts, such as analysis of finance or
global terrorism. But it can also be used for anything that moves quickly from one thing to
another, like a transient feeling or facial expression. Transient is also a noun meaning "a
person who moves from place to place; a homeless person." The word comes from
Latin transire, "to pass over (঄পতক্রম করা, উনিক্ষা করা)," so you can think of it as
describing things that are quickly passed over.

significant travail. In other words, back-breakingly (needing a lot of hard physical effort
and very tiring) hard mental exertion or physical labor.

Travail comes to us from a sinister Latin word: trepalium, meaning ―instrument of


torture.‖ The closest English word is probably toil (কন ার িপরিম ), though travail means
you’re not just exerting monumental (very big) effort but suffering as you do so. If your
life has been hard-knock enough to be the stuff of old blues songs or Shakespearean
tragedies, you’ve had your share of travails.

Everything is relative, of course, and what might appear trifling to one person may take on
deep importance for another. Clues are classically trifling things. As Sherlock Holmes
explains to Dr. Watson when faced with a seemingly minor detail: "It is, of course, a trifle
(঄পত ঴ামানয িপরমাণ), but there is nothing as important as trifles."

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for troth
troth sounds like truth..that is what it means..verity or truth..

A troth is a serious promise to be faithful, such as a pledge (প্রস্থিশ্রুস্থি) people make about
getting married. If you and your girlfriend announce your troth at a family dinner, then that
means you better be serious about your relationship.

You can pronounce troth to rhyme with "cloth" or to rhyme with "oath (লিথ)." In
fact, oath is a synonym for troth. Both words are related to truth, in that when someone
makes a troth or an oath, what is said is taken as the truth. You can see troth in words like
betrothal (পববান঵র বাগ্দান), which means engagement, or betrothed, which refers to a
person someone is engaged to.

If you get into fights all of the time, you might be accused of truculence and sent for anger
management classes. Truculence is showing a fierce (প্রচণ্ড) kind of aggression (আক্রভণ).

If your basketball team wins a game by sheer truculence, it means that they win not by
skill or talent, but by playing with ferocious (ভেঙ্কর) aggression. It would be a dirty win,
one with lots of fouls and thrown elbows. Truculence comes from the Latin word
for trux meaning fierce or wild.

to cut off." Although this brings to mind a more grisly (গা-ছমছনম,অতঙ্কেনক) image
("truncate a limb in an accident"), you can actually truncate things that are not related to
anatomy. You could truncate an essay by omitting a paragraph or two, or you could even
truncate your vacation in Belize by heading home early.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for unconscionable


unconscionable is un + conscio + nable...and conscience means to know what is morally
acceptable but unconscious means not aware of the acceptable amount and therefore the same

163 | P a g e
as unconscionable.

Unconscionable is the same as immeasurable... something that is beyond compare...


uncomparable.

Something that is almost unimaginably unacceptable is unconscionable. Think of it as


being something that no reasonable person would even think of doing or saying —
something unbelievable, outrageous (঄তযািারী,ভোনক), and often horrible.

The word unconscionable is related to the word conscience. Add the un-, and you can see
that it refers to something done without applying good moral judgment. The word first
appeared in the mid-16th century — presumably (঴ম্ভবত) everyone up until that time had
high scruples and never did or said anything beyond the boundaries of conscience. Sadly,
the antonym, conscionable, is rarely used, and, in fact, has been obsolete since the 18th
century, though unconscionable remains in frequent use.

Definition
(adj) resembling an abyss in depth; so deep as to be unmeasurable
Synonyms : abysmal , abyssal
Example Sentence
 the abyssal depths of the ocean

Definition
(adj) impossible to come to understand
Unfathomable means impossible to ever understand. For most people, the field of quantum
mechanics is unfathomable.

Fathoms are seafaring (঴মুনদ্র ভ্রমণ) units of measure equaling about six feet. So something
that is unfathomable is also immeasurable, especially when it comes to depth.
Metaphorically, unfathomable can refer to something that resembles an abyss, some
figurative notion that's so deep you can't even measure it.

unfledged is bird imatture to fly or having no feathers

Something that is unfledged is young and inexperienced, such as an unfledged short


story writer who has great style but whose stories have plots that are impossible to follow.

The word unfledged can be used literally to describe a baby bird that doesn’t yet have
feathers and can’t fly or leave the nest. It can also describe a person who is inexperienced
or not yet completely developed. An actor just learning his craft could be called unfledged.
It can also be used to describe ideas that are still developing, such as an unfledged plan —
there are goals but all the steps for reaching them aren't in place.

Ungainly is the opposite of graceful, convenient or easy. A


clumsy (দফখাপ্পা,উদ্ভট,অস্থফচক্ষণ) dancer boogies (to dance to pop music) in an ungainly or
awkward fashion.

Though you see gain in ungainly, the word does not have to do with growing, or getting
ahead. Ungainly comes from an Old Norse word meaning not convenient or, in other
words, awkward. If you want to impress your gym teacher or sports coach, first appear
ungainly and then surprise him with your great athletic ability. Applying to college can be
an ungainly process without an advisor to help.

universal remote can change the stations on all your home entertainment systems, but
hopefully not at once.

The uni in universal means "one" so this word is all about "one for all and all for one." If
it's universal, it applies to all cases. Like the universe itself, a universal emotion is one that
every human can understand or relate to. The desire for your children to be safe and happy
is universal. If you are to make a universal change in a document it means that every time
the specified word appears, it should be fixed.

Unorthodox describes something that goes against the usual ways of doing things. Instead
of describing yourself as a terrible speller, you might instead proudly refer to your spelling
as unorthodox.

The adjective unorthodox originally referred to religion, specifically to a person or


practice that went against the traditions of a particular belief. The
Greek roots of unorthodox are orthos, or "right," and doxa, or "opinion." So someone
whose beliefs are orthodox ধভপ ভশ্লি েৃঢ়স্থফশ্বা঳ী, প্রচস্থরি, ঳ফপজনগৃ঴ীি has "the right
opinion," while an unorthodox person does not. The definition has evolved so that

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for unsullied


un+sullied(ক঱পঙ্কত)

Your reputation is unsullied, or unsoiled পনষ্ক঱ঙ্ক, because you study hard, you don’t skip
school, and you are generally kind to everyone. Your friend’s reputation hasn’t stayed
unsullied since he got caught selling answers to tests.

To understand the adjective unsullied, you must understand its root, sully, "to soil or
tarnish মপ঱ন করা." Something unsullied is spotless: you usually refer to things in the
abstract in this way––your military record may be unsullied by disciplinary actions, your
report card may be unsullied by grades lower than A.

The adjective untoward describes something offensive or inappropriate, like the rumors of
untoward behavior that can shatter ধ্বং঳ কযা a Hollywood icon's reputation.

Untoward also describes things that are not good for you, such as untoward advice from
someone your parents always said was a bad influence. Think about what you do when you
move toward something: you get closer to it. Suppose you're moving toward a goal. You
are, as they say, "on the right path." But when you add the prefix un- you reverse that, and
you're no longer on the path to that goal — you're untoward.

Something that is wieldy(িপরিা঱না করা,পনেপিত করা,িা঱না করা) is easy to control or


handle, so something unwieldy is not. However, the un- form of the word is much more
common. The base word wieldy has its roots in Old English, meaning "to handle or

wit is knowledge. Witting means knowing something.UN(not)WITTING(knowing
something)

Unwitting and Discerning are similar in sound but opposite in meaning. While unwitting
means ignorant, discerning means to perceive with the mind or senses (only someone clever
has the power to think).

Use the adjective unwitting to describe someone who doesn't know certain important
information, such as unwitting computer users who don't know that an online shopping
site is tracking all their activity.

Unwitting can also describe something you do almost automatically, like


the unwitting way you double-check that the door is locked when leaving the house. It can
also indicate that something is done without intention, like an unwitting arrival at a by-
invitation-only event. Wit means "clever," so something that is unwitting is not clever.

vagrant rhymes with migrant. Migrants are homeless wanderers

A vagrant is someone who is homeless and poor and may wander from place to place. In
fiction a vagrant often is a criminal, but a real-life vagrant might just be a person who has
lost a job and family and lives off the streets with help from charity.

Many synonyms for vagrant imply laziness and criminal behavior, such as "bum অ঱ন঴য
঴মে কাটাননা, পনষ্কমতা ," "tramp রটানটা কপরো রয ভ্রমণ কনর," and "vagabond উনেলয঵ীন

down-on-his-luck person who has lost work, family, or health and lives on the streets.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for vain
vain resembles pain. A person who is full of self-admiration(vain) is a pain in the ass.
vain==pain

vain basically resembles van (a car)which is very cheap bcoz it has got very low mileage
thus very few people are having this car.Thus this car is worthless or its launch was
unsuccesful(bcoz not many people buy it).

If you spend all day admiring yourself in reflective surfaces — mirrors, pools of water,
the backs of spoons — people may think you are conceited োস্থম্ভক, আত্মাস্থবভানী or vain.

If, to your horror, you have searched everywhere for a reflective surface but can't find
one, you have made a fruitless or vainsearch for a mirror. Vain is from
Latin vanus "empty," and in English it originally meant "lacking value or effect, futile বৃথা
"; we still say "a vain attempt" using that sense, and the phrase "in vain" means "without
success." Normally, though, vain means "conceited োস্থম্ভক, আত্মাস্থবভানী, too proud of
oneself." Carly Simon's line "You're sovain, you probably think this song is about you" is
an excellent illustration of this use.

the vanguard of medical research at a university, or the vanguard of a political movement

You can use the adjective vehement to describe an extremely strong, powerful, or intense
emotion or force. The teenager argued for a much later curfew in a vehement speech to her

Vehement is from Latin and was originally applied to intense natural phenomena: pain,
heat, wind, etc. It is now more commonly used for intense emotions or beliefs. With the
adverb form, people can be vehemently in favor of something, but the more common usage
is for people to be vehemently opposed to something. Many people, for example, are
vehemently opposed to politicians they didn't vote for, other people spoiling the endings of
movies or books, or someone else taking the last piece of chocolate. The stress is on the
first syllable (VEE-uh-ment).

top of the mountain who tells you the meaning of life. As a noun, the Venerable refers to
someone high up in a religion, usually Christian. In fact, Saint Bede, who is sometimes
called the Father of English History, is often referred to as the Bede the Venerable.

A venture is a risky undertaking. If your latest venture is a dog food store, you hope there
are some hungry dogs around. Also, toventure is to go somewhere possibly dangerous,
like if you venture out into a snowstorm.

Venture is a shortened form of adventure. This happened sometime between 1100 AD and
1400 AD during the time that Middle English was spoken. While the two words are
similar in meaning, when you subtract the "ad," you lose a teaspoon or two of fun, and add
a heaping tablespoon of risk.

The adjective venturesome describes someone who is willing to take risks, someone brave.
If you have a venturesome child, you may worry because she's the one you find on top of
the playhouse instead of inside it.

The root word of venturesome is venture, and venture is short for aventure, which is a
form of adventure, which we understand to be an interesting or exciting experience. Some
people are more venturesome than others.

who always lets you know what she thinks about your outfits ঳জ্জা঳াভগ্রী, your hairstyle,
your lasagna recipe, and your taste in movies.

Think of a veracious person as someone who is like a witness under oath in a court of law,
someone who speaks ―the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.‖ Don’t ask a
question of a veracious friend unless you really want to know the answer. The
adjective veracious can be applied not just to people but also to things that are true or
accurate, such as "a veracious story" or "a veracious statement."

The vernacular is different from literary or official language: it's the way people really talk

You know how some language is fancy and formal? Vernacular is different: think of it as
how friends talk when no one is listening. Vernacular language includes slang and
obscenities গাপ঱গা঱াে. One of the hardest things about writing for school is getting away
from the vernacular and learning to write in more formal ways that don't come as naturally.
You can also say specific groups have a vernacular, meaning the unique way people in a
certain region or profession speak.

literary sketch; short written description of a character or scene

Definition
(noun) a brief literary description
Synonyms : sketch

Definition
(noun) a photograph whose edges shade off gradually

Definition
(noun) a small illustrative sketch (as sometimes placed at the beginning of chapters in books)

A vignette is a brief but powerful scene. A good vignette leaves you wanting more.

Over the centuries a vignette has taken on different forms. Originally it was one of those
small sketches you find in the front of old books, often with decorative bands of ivy
পির঵পরৎ ঱তাপবনল঳ around its edges (the word comes from the French vigne for vineyard).
When cinema came along, a vignette became a quick portrait in film of a character. Some
films, like Robert Altman's Short Cuts, are essentially just a compilation of individual
vignettes.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for violate


Violate and disobeyed have similar sounds and they mean - to defy.

Violate is a verb that describes actions that show no respect for people, laws, property,
and customs, like drivers who violate the law when they fail to stop at red lights or those
who violate your privacy when they eavesdrop আস্থে দ঩শ্লি দ঱ানা on your personal
conversations.

Violate comes from the Latin word violatus which means "to break," as in a promise or
oath. As members of our society, we make unspoken promises — to follow all laws, to
help people if we can, or at the very least, not hurt them. So when we violate — laws,
property, people's abilities to live safe, peaceful lives — we break the promises that come
with being lawful citizens.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for virile


Virile (strong) is the opposite of fragile (sensitive).

You'll often hear the word virile referring to a manly, powerful man, because the word
means having physical strength and other typical masculine ঩ুরুশ্ললাস্থচি qualities.

When you think of a virile man, you imagine a tough, strong guy who's full of energy,
vigor, and sexual potency. He's definitely not a wimp(a person who is not strong, brave, or
confident:). Men admire him and women want to be with him. Superman is one guy who
could easily be described as virile. The Man of Steel, with his muscles rippling under the
"S" emblazoned on his costume, has superhuman strength and charm. That's why Lois
Lane can't keep her eyes — and hands — off him.

Mnemonics (Memory Aids) for virulent


it is a virus, which causes disease and harm. So, something virulent is viral and poisonous.

A virulent disease is one that's infectious, spreading and making lots of people sick, while
a virulent rant গরাফাস্থজ is just a verbal attack, causing sickness of the emotional kind.
Either way, something virulent puts a strain on the people who get it.

Two meanings come out of the roots for virulent: one being "poisonous" and the other,
"spiteful অনক্রালিূণ.ত " The virus-carrying meaning of virulent often gets combined
with strain, such as in a "virulent strain of the flu." Those who aren’t carrying disease but
are still considered virulent most likely lash কলাঘাত out at others with a biting tone.
Unleashing ছাপেো রিত্তো acid-tongued words on someone would be considered a virulent

Sweetheart Lovey-Face."

Waive comes from a Middle English word meaning to abandon ঩তযতযাগ কযা ; the word
waif, which refers to a neglected or orphaned child, shares the same root. However, while
abandoning a child on a street corner is not okay, waiving one's right to do something is in
most cases perfectly acceptable. A document stating one's decision to give up one's rights
is appropriately called a waiver.

in money.

Wallow can be used to describe a physical action or an emotional state. If you cry "Woe

of its association with the much-maligned pig, wallow often has a negative, insulting tone.
So, rather than wallowing in that pile of money once you've won the lottery, try bathing or
wading in it instead.

that you look wan.

When your aunt comes to dinner and eats three helpings of dessert, she might seem a little
wan as she drinks her tea, meaning she looks sickly and weak — and no wonder, after so
many slices of pie! Wan can also describe a fading light — one that is sickly and weak,
just like your aunt. When the light bulb in the living room burns out and leaves only wan
twilight filtering in, you’ll find it impossible to read.

house — a permission slip from a judge.

It's a noun! It's a verb! It's a word that warrants our attention! As a noun, it's the piece o f
paper they show you through the keyhole during an investigation. It's also a reason for
doing something, or a promise (think of the warranty on your new car, the promise that it'll
work for a certain amount of time). As a verb, it means to make something seem
reasonable or necessary, such when the ticking suitcase warrants bringing in the bomb

Describe yourself as wary if you don't quite trust someone or something and want to
proceed with caution. Be wary of risky things like wild mushrooms and Internet deals!

You can trace wary through Old English back to Old High German giwar "aware,
attentive." If you keep a wary eye on something, you are attentive for signs that it is
becoming dangerous. Likewise, if you give someone a wary glance, your face conveys the
suspicion and caution you feel. When you are wary of driving alone at night or making
promises, you fear something bad might happen if you do these things.

Waver comes from the Old English word wæfre, which means ―restless অতিয.‖ When the
wind blows, it makes the leaves and flowers waver, or move, in that same direction. A
person who wavers is much the same — affected by any influence or change. He or she
isn't sure what to do or may be too shy to express a preference until time is just about up

father's singing voice. As a verb, weary means "to exhaust ঩তযশ্রান্ত কযা or wear out," like

Weather is the atmospheric conditions, including the temperature, wind, snow, rain, or
anything else happening outside. People tend to talk about the weather when they can't
think of anything else to talk about.

In some places, people say, "Don't like the weather? Wait an hour and it'll change." Every
day, experts try to predict the weather, but they never get it exactly right. You can also use
weather to mean "endure ঳঴য কযা something," as in "I weathered the storm at work."
That's not a real storm, but a stormy situation. Even though the weather drives us all crazy

Yield sounds similar to field. A field is an area where crop is grown, and yield is the amount
of crop produced in it as an outcome of one's effort.

Yield has two meanings that seem quite different: "an amount" or "to give way." The
yield of the recipe was twelve brownies. To avoid being tripped, Mary was forced to
yield to the children on her way to the brownie plate.

While these meanings seem quite different, they both essentially mean "to give." The
recipe gives twelve brownies to those who follow it, and Mary is giving up her right to go
first. Yield can also mean the rate of return on an investment. A bond yields an interest
rate of 2%, or gives an investor $2.00 for every $100 invested.
