While I was reading through the article “ The Happiest and Saddest Places in New York City, According to Twitter” by Brian Merchant , I came across the word resplendent and was kinda familiar with the word , but was too sure about the exact definition. I used Context clues and the word that came across to me was splendid. After using context clues , I went online to look up the definition. Once I found the definition , I understood the word better. The way I understood the word was glowing or beautiful .
