# Words that should be added/modified
| Word | Occurence | Explanation |
| :----------------------- | :---------------------------- | :---------------------- |
| excise | Prep-scholar | Came up in _Analyzing text structure & purpose (Core Verbal)_ |
| acquiescence | Prep-scholar | Came up in _Interference (Core Verbal)_ |
| connote | Prep-scholar | Came up in _Interference (Core Verbal)_ |
| deprecate/depreciate | this list (no.203) | Use an example with the other meaning of _deprecate_, not the software meaning |
| blight | this list (no.110) | missing </b> at the end of example |
| divest | this list (no.851) | Example just reads _Droll_ for some reason. Either delete or replace with good example. (pretty easy word though) |
| capacity | this list (no.133) | missing </b> & </u> in example. |
| eddy | this list (no.854) | better example: _<u>Leonardo Da Vinci</u> could apply his <u>research into eddys</u> to the main <u>aorta</u>'s valve closing mechanism centuries before modern science proved his theories to be correct_ (maybe not specific, but something that helps me personally remember the word really well) |
| effect/affect | this list (no.260) | either pin down underlines in example or remove, underlining everything seems redundant. |
| qualify | this list (no.1455) | add a Source, cannot import without a source since trailing empty cells get cut off in the conversion to csv |
| calumby | this list (no.130) | insert underline delimiter |
| artless | this list (no.81) | Example cuts off. _hai_ instad of _hair._ |
| deprecate/depreciate | this list (no.203) | Explanation cuts off |
| façad | this list (no.864) | Seems like it should be _façade_ or _facade_ |
| depravity | this list (no.844) | add ending delimiter for unerline text in example |
| chicanery | this list (no.144) | add ending delimiter for underline text in example |
| disinterested | this list (no.232) | remove inconsistent numbering |
| fawn | this list (no.338) | remove inconsistent numbering |
| epistemology | this list (no.858) | Add spaces in example |
| flag | this list (no.345) | clean up number formatting (an example for the first meaning is defnitely not required) |
| baseness | GRE Test exam 1 | pretty logical in what it means, maybe include it since it's not a negation of _abasement_ and it could be easily be confused as being one? |
| judicious | GRE Test exam 1 | has nothing to do with law, could confuse if looking at it from a logical side |
| pernicious | GRE Test exam 1 | Often heard, never learned actual meaning of |
| doctrinaire | GRE Test exam 1 | Maybe leave it out, seems a bit self-explanatory |
| debased | GRE Test exam 1 | Meaning is similar to _abasement_ and _baseness_, could be left out maybe? Up to you. |
| injudicious | GRE Test exam 1 | Could be easily construed as being the negation of judicious, which it does not appear to be |
| inveigling | GRE Test exam 1 | Never heard of before |

# Questions to answer:
- Difference between _abate_ & _attenuate_
→ abate can weaken to the point of disappearing, attenuate has to be always present.
- Difference between _castigate_ & _chastize_
- Are _fervid_ & _fervent_ the same word?
- Connotation of _facetious_
