Full transcript
- 0:00I have 25 new words for you today and
- 0:03I'm gonna try and teach you them in a
- 0:06different kind of way
- 0:07they're great for the GRE but to be
- 0:10honest they're useful for anybody the
- 0:12idea that I had was to ask chat GPT Link
- 0:16in the description to write a poem based
- 0:20on these 25 new words these are words
- 0:23that haven't appeared in any of my other
- 0:25vocab videos brand new ranging from
- 0:29medium difficulty to really show off
- 0:32kind of words so we're going to get
- 0:34straight into the poem and try and learn
- 0:36the words at the same time what I'm
- 0:39going to do is read each stanza of the
- 0:41poem and then teach you the words that
- 0:43were contained in that stanza the first
- 0:46stanza is the static air was thick with
- 0:50malodor Ascent as we tried to Stave off
- 0:53the fights demolish the walls that held
- 0:56Us in but the stingy words cut us like a
- 1:00knife
- 1:01okay so static means still and
- 1:06unchanging a bit like the word
- 1:07stationary nothing's changing it's
- 1:10static
- 1:12melodorous an odor is a bad smell and
- 1:16Mal means bad so this is a truly bad
- 1:20scent or smell smells terrible
- 1:24as we try to Stave off the fight
- 1:28Stave is like an ancient kind of stick
- 1:30so to push something off with a stick to
- 1:34Stave it off is to avoid it to avert it
- 1:37to stop it from happening the lawyer
- 1:40tried to Stave off bankruptcy try to
- 1:42avoid it to not let it happen to Stave
- 1:45It Off
- 1:46then they tried to demolish the walls
- 1:50you may know this word already but
- 1:52demolish means to break something down
- 1:54Destroyer like demolishing a building
- 1:58but these stingy words cut as like a
- 2:00knife
- 2:01this is the first of the slightly badly
- 2:05used words they didn't quite capture the
- 2:07meaning you may not agree with that but
- 2:10stingy means being Frugal with your
- 2:13money being tight it's a negative word
- 2:17it's derogatory if you call someone
- 2:19stingy it means they're not generous
- 2:22it's the opposite of generous they're
- 2:24tight with their money they don't give
- 2:26things away so I'm not quite sure how
- 2:28words can be stingy but there we go next
- 2:32stanza
- 2:33temperamental outbursts left us
- 2:36stupefied as we try to navigate The
- 2:39Strife we reiterated and repeated our
- 2:42points but the other side remained
- 2:44unyielding in their life
- 2:47temperamental do you notice is
- 2:49pronounced very differently to how it's
- 2:51written if I pronounce it how it's
- 2:53written it would be temperamental it's
- 2:55temperamental a bit like temperature is
- 2:59pronounced differently to how it's
- 3:00spelled by the way it means being
- 3:03unpredictable you could just say having
- 3:06a temper but it's not about just being
- 3:08angry it's where someone's mood is
- 3:10capricious fickle you can't see where
- 3:13they're going they're emotional a bit
- 3:15unstable temperamental and being left
- 3:17stupefied this is a great word it's like
- 3:20you're stunned you're stunned into
- 3:21silence you're left unable to think or
- 3:25feel properly you're astonished you're
- 3:27shocked you're stupefied now you
- 3:30actually may not know the next word in
- 3:32the next line strife
- 3:34even though that wasn't one of the 25
- 3:36Strife is difficulty troubles they're
- 3:39trying to navigate chart the Waters of
- 3:42the troubles
- 3:43work their way through them we
- 3:46reiterated that was one of the other
- 3:48words I wanted to teach to reiterate is
- 3:50to say something again basically to
- 3:52repeat yourself the prefix re at the
- 3:55beginning is a bit of a giveaway because
- 3:57re always means to repeat
- 3:59but the other side remained unyielding
- 4:01not giving away anything if you're
- 4:05unyielding you're not surrendering
- 4:07you're not giving up you're not giving
- 4:08anything but it's not just about a
- 4:10battle it could be a negotiation if
- 4:14you're not giving any ground in a
- 4:16negotiation you could be said to be
- 4:18unyielding and these people are being
- 4:20unyielding in their life
- 4:23here's a really interesting one but
- 4:25let's explain it after I've read the
- 4:27stanza Foursquare in their beliefs they
- 4:30stood spiteful words spilling from their
- 4:33lips we seethed with anger trying to
- 4:36cultivate a sense of Peace amidst the
- 4:39chaos and the dips to be four square is
- 4:42to be solid and robust I looked up the
- 4:45etymology the origin of that word and
- 4:48it's basically that A square has four
- 4:50sides so in medieval times it was
- 4:52thought to be super robust I guess a
- 4:54square is robust but either way to be
- 4:56four square behind someone is to be
- 4:58solidly supporting that person what
- 5:01about spiteful it means resentful
- 5:05holding spite against someone bitterness
- 5:08wanting ill for them and these words
- 5:10were spilling from their lips
- 5:12and the next two lines are kind of
- 5:15interesting here a little bit
- 5:16contradictory to soothe with anger fits
- 5:19perfectly is to see this to be full of
- 5:21hate and fury and you can barely hold it
- 5:24in but then it goes on to say that we're
- 5:27trying to cultivate which means to grow
- 5:29to spread to cultivate a sense of peace
- 5:33amidst the chaos and the dips I'm not
- 5:36quite sure what the dips has to do with
- 5:38anything but how would seething with
- 5:40anger mean that you're trying to
- 5:42cultivate a sense of Peace it doesn't
- 5:43really fit this poem's a little bit
- 5:45Dodge but it's entertaining let's admit
- 5:47and hopefully we're learning loads of
- 5:49words let's keep going the argument was
- 5:52Rife with misunderstanding as we fought
- 5:54with all our might but the dour looks
- 5:57and unyielding stances left us feeling
- 6:00drained and tired no respite in sight to
- 6:04be Rife is to be full of something for
- 6:06it to have spread everywhere if you say
- 6:09a disease was Rife it means it spread
- 6:11across a community if an argument is
- 6:13Rife with misunderstanding it means it's
- 6:15full of that misunderstanding great word
- 6:18Rife
- 6:19but the dour looks
- 6:22to be Dao is to be gloomy solemn serious
- 6:26Sullen never really smiling always kind
- 6:29of frowning not necessarily angry just
- 6:32serious in a kind of gloomy way
- 6:35and then unyielding we already know a
- 6:37stance is a position so they have gloomy
- 6:40serious looks an unwavering position and
- 6:44they left these guys feeling drained and
- 6:46tired with no respite in sight respite
- 6:50is like relief safety a break a pause
- 6:54and there's no pause no break in sight
- 6:57it's just going on and on and on we
- 6:59search for a way to reconcile but the
- 7:03compunction we felt was nebulous at best
- 7:06lovely the risible attempts are
- 7:08rejoinder were met with flummox looks
- 7:11and a retroactive test
- 7:14the logic here is amazing chat GPT is
- 7:17trying his best to make a poem out of my
- 7:19mangle 25 words but there we go
- 7:21hopefully you're learning loads of new
- 7:23words today
- 7:24okay we search for a way to reconcile to
- 7:28bring two sides together that's
- 7:29reconcile again these are bonus words
- 7:31here so it must be 30 really is the real
- 7:34total anyway the compunction compunction
- 7:37is like guilt and pity the most common
- 7:40way to use the word is to say they had
- 7:43no compunction to phrase it in the
- 7:44negative
- 7:46she felt no compunction while
- 7:48negotiating the best deal no pity for
- 7:50the other side no guilt no regret here
- 7:52they're phrasing in the positive but the
- 7:55guilt the compunction we felt was
- 7:57nebulous cloudy Misty vague ethereal at
- 8:01best as in it's not tangible they're not
- 8:03feeling much compunction much guilt as I
- 8:06said normally you use compunction in the
- 8:08negative to have no compunction about
- 8:09something no guilt and there we go we've
- 8:11learned another word as well nebulous is
- 8:13cloudy like a nebula in space when you
- 8:17look at it in the telescope it's cloudy
- 8:19and hard to spot the individual elements
- 8:22I think they originally felt that
- 8:24galaxies far away were actually nebulous
- 8:26they didn't actually realize there were
- 8:28other galaxies out there in the universe
- 8:29but now we know there are but nebulous
- 8:32can mean anything that's cloudy unclear
- 8:34vague and it continues the risible that
- 8:37means the risable mockable shameful
- 8:41embarrassing attempts I looked down on
- 8:44those attempts they're risible at a
- 8:46rejoinder a rejoinder is a reply a
- 8:50rebuttal
- 8:51counter argument so they had these
- 8:54embarrassing awful attempts at a counter
- 8:57argument
- 8:58and when they did that they were met
- 9:01with flummoxed confused flummoxed is a
- 9:04fantastic word to say confused not
- 9:07knowing what's going on bemused looks
- 9:09and at that point the stanza was kind of
- 9:12making sense that if you have these
- 9:14embarrassing awful attempts that's a
- 9:16reply it would get flummoxed looks no
- 9:19idea how they tried to segue in this
- 9:22retroactive test they did their best
- 9:24good job Champion anyway retroactive
- 9:27means looking backwards imagine you
- 9:30apply a tax for the next year coming up
- 9:32ahead that's fine no one complains but
- 9:35if you make it retroactive so if you
- 9:37make it apply to previous years often
- 9:39people get angry because they say like
- 9:41we didn't know that was coming
- 9:44that's not fair we didn't know at the
- 9:46time because it's retroactive it applies
- 9:49it's active retro going backwards
- 9:51imagine a teacher changing the rules
- 9:53retroactively so that the thing you did
- 9:56that was within the rules in the class
- 9:58suddenly is now against the rules and
- 10:01you didn't even know at the time it's
- 10:03kind of unfair often a lot of
- 10:05retroactive things not always but
- 10:06commonly final stanza we were left to
- 10:10debunk the lies and the myths in the
- 10:13proximity of our own frustration
- 10:15but maybe someday we'll find a way to
- 10:18find peace and a moment of elation
- 10:21get Beauty Sleeping in there at the end
- 10:23all done
- 10:25okay we were left to debunk it means
- 10:29prove something wrong usually a
- 10:31conspiracy theory or a lie to show up
- 10:34the flaws in the logic to reveal the
- 10:37flaws and the logic or the flaws in the
- 10:40evidence to debunk something show it to
- 10:42be nonsense
- 10:44in the proximity it's a lovely word in
- 10:48the local area to something I am
- 10:51proximate to a local bakery I am near to
- 10:54it are you in the proximity of a good
- 10:56school are you nearby to a good school
- 10:59obviously it can also be metaphorical in
- 11:02the proximity of our own frustrations
- 11:04they're getting very near to being
- 11:06frustrated but maybe someday we'll find
- 11:08a way to find peace and a moment of
- 11:10elation joy and Elation happiness
- 11:15so if any of these I would say 30 words
