Hey Puys,

I know you all are new comers...

But there is a small button down every post to say thanks.. and to say no thank you...
So use that instead of writing "thanks" in new posts... Itis considered as spam...

Keep posting... In a right way...

My take on medulla post ::::

medulla-Opposite words- 31.07.2008 - pg 32

1) Spelling of soigne is wrong .. kept on searching in my brain but result fail infact not a word in dictionary when i searched in the google ..

anyhow no problem dudi...
meaning is polished or well groomed so oppposie is rustic

2) Recreant means a A coward. hence valiant which means brave (Possessing valor; brave) confession didinot know the meaning searched in the dictionary so no points for this

3) distaff means feminine so opposite is masculine

4) adventitious means not a part of formally hence the opposite is Integral

5) grimace means bad glooomy(A sharp contortion of the face expressive of pain, contempt, or disgust.) and the opposite is smile

lets c what are the answers

just one requset please do not quote the whole post just follow the naming convention


To God
Thodi si to lift kara de
IIM A ki seat dila De

Moi mock scores::
