Description

things that we had on quizlet that selvin said were wrong when i talked with her today

and definitions not exactly in the dictionary that Madame selvin prefers

and words we spelled wrong/read her handwriting wrong/she wrote wrong

they are in order of appearance

the old wrong definitions or wrong spellings are in ()

when the "wrong" stuff has a big G, for GOOD, it means our defs were not wrong, she just penciled in additional defs = learn hers, not ours, but she didn't cross ours out.

a big B, for BAD, means our def/spelling/the term she put in packet was WRONG

parenthesis without letters are part of the term

jalenack : damn you are a beassstttt
Jenkins : While I am going through the old sets I will try to make the appropriate changes so that we can study all the vocab with correct definitions as a whole not separated into its own group. Everyone should follow suit!
Jenkins : Changed les effluves → the fragrances (the emanations, brush discharges G) to les effluves (m) → the fragrances (the emanations, brush discharges G)
LaFontaine : Great
LaFontaine : I was a little suspicious of "les gencives" meaning the gnus as a gnu is un gnou in the part of the book that we read.
LaFontaine : oh! Déhanché like haunches, very clever.
btaller8 : dont worry artemis, i believe i made all the changes in the other sets (not including lea's and wills)
