Hello and welcome to episode 50 of the Victor Prep vocab podcast

starting off with a quote from Alexander Dumas, an amazing author you have to read the Count of Monte Cristo.

So if you haven't read that book, add it to your list.

There is neither happiness nor misery in the world.

There is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest

grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life

So episode 50 well I can't believe it. It's taken a while for it to happen due to the lack of episodes recently but

anyway episode 50 hopefully we'll do another 50 episodes together but before we get

started on the new stuff let's just quickly go over what we did in episode 49.

That is a word which is used to describe a person and it's a person who's calm stays cool under pressure being unemotional flagmatic

discrete note discrete ending in ETE and not EETT.

Discrete means individually separate or distinct.

So normally you're describing a number of things and you say

they're all discrete, so they're all separate and distinct.

Mal addiction, that is a curse, as in a magical curse. So if you anger a witch or a

wizard and they curse you, that is a maladdiction. And our final word from last time was philanthropy.

Philanthropy. That is the desire to promote the welfare of others, giving gifts, money, or just helping people. So guys let's learn some new words and our

first word is complacent. Complacent.

Now I have to do a bit of explanation here because there are two words homophones

with different spellings. So those complacent spelled C-O-M-P-L-A-I-S-A-N-T, that's the one we're learning today, complacent.

And there's also another complacent, which is C-O-M-P-L-A-C-E-N-T.
