Hi gang this is Sam and before we get started on the new episode let's just review

the words from episode 58

Draner that is seeking to impose a doctrine in all circumstances without any regard to practical considerations.

action is one that's likely to a

anger or resentment from other people. And when Invidious is used to describe a comparison or a distinction

between two things, it means unfair, discriminating, unjust or unwarranted.

So gang, those were our words last time and just want to repeat that the reason why we go over the words repeatedly is that when it comes to remembering things, really need that repetition you need two things really you need

repetition and spaced repetition and also actual practical usage of words.

That means not just listening to me, but testing yourself,

going over the word tests that I produce, writing down example sentences.

If you're really going to improve your vocabulary and have it stick, you need to

actively use these words, use this knowledge and understanding.
