I did this for my teacher and she liked so I wondered how YOU would like it.

These are my words,

 

Beleaguered

 

To harass; beset

 

I am beleaguered by the problems in my life.

 

Irony

 

1 a pretense of ignorance and of willingness to learn from another assumed in order to make the other's false conceptions conspicuous by adroit questioning —called also Socratic irony

2 a: the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning b: a usually humorous or sardonic literary style or form characterized by irony c: an ironic expression or utterance

 

With a sense of irony I propose the word screeched.

 

nth

 

1. Relating to an unspecified ordinal number: ten to the nth power.

2. Highest; utmost

 

I am delighted to the nth degree because you came to my dinner party.

 

Organic compound

 

In physics, a material that contains carbon and hydrogen and usually other elements such as nitrogen, sulfur and oxygen. Organic compounds can be found in nature or they can be synthesized in the laboratory. An organic substance is not the same as a "natural" substance. A natural material means that it is essentially the same as it was found in nature, but "organic" means that it is carbon based.

 

This ‘yl’ set occurs frequently and more or less each part in between them is the name of a independent group of an organic compound.

 

Postdoctoral

 

after doctorate: relating to academic work or research done after a doctorate has been awarded

I did some postdoctoral academic work yesterday.



Please tell me how you like it!

LOL, did you choose the wrong smiley by mistake? It's sad and yawning! Big Smile

Anyway, what was that thing you did? An exercise? It seems pretty useful to learn new vocabulary.
