Hello Readers!
I’m sorry for my small disappearance. October has been a rough month. Two surgeries and catching up in
school. Thankfully, I'm feeling
much better and am almost caught up in school.
There are so many good words in The Exorcist! There were
initially 50-ish words I wanted to explore, but I’ve chosen
33 to define. I’ve broken them up
into two sections of about 16 words.
The examples are sentences from the book, unless noted otherwise. Also, almost all of the definitions are taken from dictionary.com--in most cases verbatim. You can go to the site to hear and see pronunciation.
assuage, balustrade, belie, breviary, brogue, cassock,
catting, circumlocutions, debenture, droshky, ersatz, esplanade, excoriating,
fey, garrulous, inchoate
