Vocab. 2 W.N. 19 (apologies for the lateness due to the internet error!)

Wednesday, October 29, 2008

Okay, so here is the new and inspiring vocabulary list that I have created this week:

* Licentious - (1) sexually unrestrained; lascivious; lewd. (2) unrestrained by law or general morality; lawless; immoral
* Avowing - to acknowledge openly, boldly, and unashamedly; confess; to state positively
* Aggrandize - to widen in scope; increase in size or intensity; enlarge; extend
* Appropriation - act of setting apart, authorizing, or legislating for some specific purpose
* Instigation - act of urging, provoking, or inciting to some action or course
* Stanch - to stop the flow of (liquid, esp. blood)
* Corroborate - used to make more certain; confirm
* Crimination - a crime
* Vicegerent - an officer appointed as deputy by and to a sovereign or supreme chief

Hopefully these words will be of some use to you during the week!
