when I was reading the article English final article in  class I ran across the word commodity  I couldn’t use it in a sentence because I could not understand what the word meant so I looked up the word to see if I could get a better understanding of the word and maybe use it in a sentence so that I can fully understand what the word means . And then I could try to use it in a sentence also so I was a little stuck with the word . The word commodity means something valued or useful. Human life is a commodity that I don’t take for granted . now that I have used the word in a sentence I now can go back and read the article over and understand why they used that word in the article.
