It’s funny how when you’re reading, you just run across new vocabulary words unexpectedly. I’ve learned lots of new words, but I just thought that I’d select a few that I will start to integrate into my conversation. Books are also telling representatives of the society in which we live, especially for one focused primarily on games, and thrones. Let’s just say this.
The words are:
Nonplussed: unperturbed
Example: I wish the news were more surprising, but it’s not. I remain now, and forever, nonplussed.
Obsequious: obedient in a servile way
Example: You’re not a servant—why so obsequious?
Petulant: bad-tempered
Example: The petulant child continued to interrupt the other classmates when it was their turn to speak.
That's it for now. I just finished the book. Now onto the next one.
