Week 5 and Beyond - Weekly Vocabulary Assignments

I actually didn't learn any new vocabularies from my internship. But I did learn some argots.
There are special words or abbreivation my internship site are using. Such OB stands for observation patient which is the one that has lab to do. NP stands for new patient which there's no record for them(so I don't have to look for their charts). Oh, right, and charts!! Charts are the medical file for patients.

And here're some new SAT words that I had learned this week:

1. Word / Phrase: Daunting

Meaning: discouraging

Context: Getting a lower grade is both daunting and encouraging.


2. Word / Phrase: Congeal

Meaning: to become thick or solid, as a liquid freezing

Context: The gravy was congealed with my mash patato.

3. Word / Phrase: Decorous

Meaning: proper, well-behaved.

Context: Her dress is decorous for the concert.

4. Word / Phrase: ostracism

Meaning: exclusion, temporary banishment

Context: His ostracism from the dinner table last night was rescinded when he apologized for talking rudely to his parents.

5. Word / Phrase: procrastinate

Meaning: to put off doing work

Context: What I want to do now is to procrastinate my works.

  1. Tina,
    Thanks for getting a quick start on this blog. However, when you write the context, describe when/where/how you learned of the words as opposed to sentences using the words.
