I don't know what those words mean, and deifinitions don't really work for me. I understand words more when they're used in sentences.

If you read the definitions of those words, you should have little trouble using them in a sentence.

Expound In A Sentence

to answer your question -- yes I can

Be honest -- your assignment is to learn these vocabulary words and then demonstrate you understand them by using them in sentences, right? How are you going to learn to do that if someone else does it for you? What do you mean that definitions "don't really work" for you?? Perhaps you're using the wrong kind of dictionary? Maybe you need something a bit clearer? While I agree that it's easiest to understand words in context, the point of an assignment like this is for YOU to demonstrate you understand the words by being able to use them in sentences. Surely your teacher didn't say "get someone else to write sentences for you"

So, I will show you how to do one... how to take a word and its definition and turn it into a sentence. Let's look at VIVACIOUS... It is an adjective that is used to describe someone who is particularly lively and full of good spirit. Don't you know anybody like that? I'm sure you can think of someone...perhaps at a party or a school dance who is always lively? Now write a sentence about that person and describe her as vivacious.

Vivacious The gentleman had his choice of two ladies, the vivacious brunette, or the dismal blond.

Propaganda When I say it it is information. When my opponent says it, it is propaganda.

Elaborated. After Tom finished telling the story, he elaborated on some of the dtails.

Expounded. Some people said that even after Tom expounded his theory, they still didn't understand it.

Apathy. Centreville is a hot-bed of political apathy. This is not a true statement, because Centreville is a where many political active people live.

Dishearted. After hearing the Centreville is a hot-bed of apathy, Joe was dishearted. He is a political activist and is looking for a new home.

Unalterable His opinions are unalterable. He will keep them until he dies.

Adapted. However, Sarah adapted her opinions after learning some new information..

Reproaced. Joe reporaced Sarah for not holding true to her beliefs.

These may not be the best examples, but they work for me.
