What grown-ups do when they have meetings because otherwise they’d forget what they’re talking about and just argue about silly stuff the whole time. It’s a list of the topics to discuss in the meeting.
Under advisement is just a fancy way of saying that you will go and get advice from others on this. Business people talk in language like this all the time.
When nobody knows who is responsible.
Something that is difficult to achieve, like the top level on Halo 2.
Look it up in the dictionary. It’ll be good practice.
This means to be cautious, but it’s a bit stronger than that, it’s like you’ve taken every possibility into account before doing anything.
This is the best word I could think of to describe my great mate Ben. I used it in the sense of precise, exact and unemotional.
The word means clearly visible or attracting notice.
Another word would be ridicule.
To have all your innards and guts and stuff ripped out, like in those cool stories about knights and ancient warriors.
To use great emphasis in the way you speak, or move, or the words you say.
Enormity has lots of meanings. I used it to mean something that was totally outrageous.
For example to tuck away somewhere, nice and safe and snug.
Great torment, or in other words, not a lot of fun!
Totally useless. Like my sister April.
The dictionary says humbleness. I used this word to show that Ben did not seek fame or fortune for doing something that he thought was simply the right thing to do.
Sort of tough, and not affected by stuff around it. I wish I was impervious.
Something so far beyond reason and understanding that your mind cannot even grasp it. Like the infinite size of the universe. Or the size of an atom.
What a great word. Strong, unyielding, stubbornly persistent. I wish I was that, too.
This is a wonderful word to say out loud, just feel the way your mouth moves when you say it, mal-ev-o-lent. It means really, really evil, and wanting to do bad stuff.
Why are all the evil words so much fun to say? Mal-ig-nant. Try it. Slowly. If you’re talking about a disease it means something that spreads quickly or is infectious. But I used it to mean nasty, or harmful.
All the fine details, ins and outs, ups and downs etc.
I used this word deliberately, knowing that Blocker wouldn’t understand what it meant. It means harmful, noxious, evil-smelling, objectionable or offensive. Use this word as often as you can!
Just to be a little fusspot about stuff and insist on everything being perfect. You know people like that. Teachers mainly.
To ill-treat. I guess Old Sea Salt didn’t really persecute kids, but it felt like it to me sometimes.
Different from what is reasonable. I really mean that I liked Frau Blüchner as a teacher, when nobody in their right minds would. But I already explained my reasons for that.
When you’re talking about actors, their profile is their livelihood. It means how well known they are. Wearing a mask did not help Dad’s profile one bit. Even the producer of the show hardly recognised him later!
Pronounce this one as suck-sinked. Short and to the point.
When someone said good stuff about you it was a testament to you that …
Fancy word for someone going on and on at you about stuff.
Means remarkably. Just a different way of saying it so it doesn’t get boring.
Spanish word for the devil. No just kidding, that’s Diablo. Viable means doable. It’s kind of the opposite of impossible.
