the word juxtaposition was a very difficult word for me to understand and it was a real problem because i had to give in example for my paper for English and i had no idea how or what the word had to do with anything.
i learned this word through seeing it in the dictionary but also talking to my professor and telling me examples. Since i had a better picture what the word meant that part of the essay became simple for me to accomplish.
