Practice

Read the following sentence and find out the meaning of 'uninhibited'

Nevertheless, many basic researchers, accustomed to free, uninhibited access to new data, seethed over what appeared to be an attempt to market the recipe for human life.

Morphology

uninhibited

  • free, uninhibited access
  • Adjective with 'free' to describe 'access'
  • un + inhibit + ed
  • un = not
  • ed: adjective-forming suffix
  • inhibit?
  • inhabit? Prohibit?

Morphology

  • inhabit: to live
  • Prohibit: to forbid, to stop someone from doing something
  • Not inhabited data? Not forbidden data?
  • Free, not prohibited access to new data

free, uninhibited access = unlimited access to new data

Context and logic

Context and logic

  • Make use of the context and logic to find out the meaning
  • What is 'seethed'?
  • Seethe + d?
  • Morphology does not help.

Many basic researchers, accustomed to free, uninhibited access to new data, seethed over what appeared to be an attempt to market the recipe for human life.

Context and logic

Many basic researchers, accustomed to free, uninhibited access to new data, seethed over what appeared to be an attempt to market the recipe for human life.

  • Free, uninhibited access to new data = free, unlimited access to new data
  • An attempt to market the recipe for human life
  • Market the recipe = sell the recipe

Context and logic

  • Free vs money
  • Pay for something that is usually free
  • How would you feel?
  • Happy? Disappointed? Angry?
  • Seethe = to boil; to be in a state of extreme agitation, especially through anger

Context and logic

  • Colon
  • to undergo emergency surgery for diverticulitis, a potentially lethal condition of the colon often associated with high anxiety
  • Your colon is the part of your intestine above your rectum.
