The Look Up: Vocabulary

In college, I had a roommate who kept a small paperback dictionary on her bookcase. Whenever she looked up a word, she would put a dot next to it. I think about her every time I look up a word, because I thought her method was just so cool. It was visual representation of learning in action. 

Here's a sample of what I looked up this week.
​

• da da da da dadadada song  - Our kiddo likes to sing along to this song where part of the chorus is "da das." I couldn't remember the name of the song. Luckily, Google is very good with weird searches like this. It led me to the correct song - Jason Derulo's "Take You Dancing."
• What does Apoplexy mean? - Asked Alexa this while watching an episode of The Office. I still don't know what Oscar was getting at.
• Trepidation - I wanted to confirm I was using this word correctly in a presentation proposal.
