So I'm a complete slacker and am just now posting the new words. This means we (by we I mean, me and my imaginary audience that is) must memorize quickly. Luckily some of these will, probably, be familiar.
1. Turbid- confused or disoriented; clouded; opaque
2. ubiquitous- omnipresent
3. undermine-to weaken the foundation of
4. unfeigned- genuine
5. unimpeachable- completely trustworthy
6. untenable- undefendable
7. usurp (I love this word)- to seize and hold
8. utilitarian- (I tend to use this word in a negative way) practical, rather than decorative
9. utility- usefulness; something useful; a public service
10. vacillate- to waver (I just used this word with a student the other day. I think they thought I had said something bad.)
On another note, I'm finally making progress again towards finishing Metamorphosis. I'm really enjoying it (this probably has something to do with it not being required for a class).
