Glossary

Add your glossary entries here in alphabetical order. You can add additional words or add entries for unclaimed words. Your entries must include:

• a word
• its part of speech (eg, noun, adjective, verb)
• the most appropriate definition–not necessarily the first one
• the citation for the source of the definition
• if possible, the page and line number
• the context of the word (eg, the sentence from our reading or course document, or the discussion date and subject)
• an explanation of the connotation of the word in that context--what does that sentence or what do those sentences mean now that you understand the word?
• if relevant, something interesting you learned in looking up the word
• your initials and the date (to get credit for your work)
