Vocabulary: Week 10


Precipitous, meaning, extremely steep is what is being depicted through this image. A very precipitous cliff is overlooking the vast ocean.

Plagiarism, though I do not agree to the extent as this picture does "plagiarism is murder" I believe it is morally and lawfully wrong. When it comes to the arts and media many have been accused of plagiarism from dubious Shakespeare works to Timbaland's song called Do It.




Incognito, disguise, basically to conceal one's identity. This woman appears to be wanting to be unnoticed with her clothing and the big shades. She reminds me of celebrities dressing incognito so as to not be disrupted by paparazzi.

bias: to cause favoritism (a person); unfair influence
deduct: to reduce
paradigm: a pattern
