Audio Transcript Auto-generated

• 00:00 - 00:03

  So in today's vocabulary lesson, we are moving on to

• 00:03 - 00:03

  Lesson three.

• 00:04 - 00:07

  We have a new list of words, all of them

• 00:07 - 00:09

  somehow related to animals, which is interesting.

• 00:10 - 00:12

  And in this video I'll be going over the definitions

• 00:12 - 00:12

  with you.

• 00:13 - 00:15

  I will be using these words in a sentence just

• 00:15 - 00:17

  so you can identify how to use these words in

• 00:17 - 00:20

  writing, and I will complete some of the exercises that

• 00:20 - 00:22

  could be found on the You See Page today.

• 00:22 - 00:25

  And last but not least, I will go over today's

• 00:26 - 00:30

  task. So let's familiarize ourselves with our new words.

• 00:31 - 00:33

  Okay, Our first term is aquatic.

• 00:34 - 00:36

  Aquatic just means related toe water.

• 00:37 - 00:40

  An animal like a fish is in aquatic fish because

• 00:40 - 00:41

  they live in water.

• 00:41 - 00:47

  Cunning, cunning means clever yet sly, so smart but in

• 00:47 - 00:48

  kind of a tricky way.

• 00:48 - 00:52

  Like, for example, if a student finds a way to

• 00:52 - 00:54

  get out of doing his homework and gets away with

• 00:54 - 00:55

  it, he's being cunning.

• 00:56 - 00:58

  Feline just means a cat.

• 00:58 - 00:59

  It's another word for Cat.

• 01:01 - 01:01

  Next, we have gate.

• 01:02 - 01:03

  Notice the spelling.

• 01:03 - 01:05

  It's not the same gate that were used to like

• 01:05 - 01:06

  Main Gate.

• 01:07 - 01:09

  A gate is just a way of walking.

• 01:10 - 01:13

  So, for example, if somebody enters my class in, like,

• 01:13 - 01:15

  a funny way, they have strange walk as they're entering

• 01:15 - 01:18

  my class, I could say, Please walk with a more

• 01:18 - 01:18

  formal gate.

• 01:19 - 01:22

  Why are you walking in such a weird gate manner

• 01:22 - 01:22

  of walking?

• 01:23 - 01:28

  Okay, Hottie hottie means kind of arrogant, full of yourself.

• 01:29 - 01:29

  Overly confident.

• 01:30 - 01:35

  That's hottie layer a layer is where, like a beastly

• 01:36 - 01:37

  creature would be hiding out.

• 01:37 - 01:41

  So you could say, um, the bear hides out in

• 01:41 - 01:41

  his lair.

• 01:42 - 01:42

  Well, that rhymes.

• 01:43 - 01:44

  Think of it as like a dark cave.

• 01:46 - 01:48

  Okay, Laura, this is a verb that means to attract.

• 01:49 - 01:52

  So if you want to, for example, lower your dog

• 01:52 - 01:53

  outside in the backyard.

• 01:54 - 01:56

  You could put some treats on the floor, leading him

• 01:57 - 01:59

  to the backyard that's luring him to the back yard.

• 02:01 - 02:01

  Another verb lurk.

• 02:02 - 02:06

  The word lurk means to hide away or kind of

• 02:06 - 02:09

  wait. Think of like a monster lurking in the shadows,

• 02:10 - 02:11

  kind of hiding, waiting to make his move.

• 02:12 - 02:14

  That's lurk shuffle.

• 02:14 - 02:17

  I think we are familiar with Shuffle just means to

• 02:17 - 02:17

  mix or jumble.

• 02:19 - 02:20

  And, of course, solitude.

• 02:21 - 02:23

  Solitude means being alone, being away from people.

• 02:24 - 02:27

  Um, somebody who enjoys his solitude is somebody who likes

• 02:28 - 02:28

  being alone.

• 02:29 - 02:32

  Okay, so now we know what the words are, and

• 02:32 - 02:36

  we can move on to using these words in writing.

• 02:37 - 02:41

  So just a few examples The cunning fox walked around

• 02:41 - 02:42

  with a strange gait.

• 02:42 - 02:44

  So here I used to words in one sentence.

• 02:45 - 02:48

  People often call Fox is cunning because they're known to

• 02:48 - 02:51

  be animals that are very smart when catching their prey.

• 02:52 - 02:55

  So notice it's not the intelligent fox, because catching their

• 02:55 - 02:56

  prey means killing another animal.

• 02:57 - 02:59

  The cunning fox walked around with a strange gay.

• 03:00 - 03:00

  His walk was odd.

• 03:02 - 03:06

  Next, the beastly feline enjoyed the solitude of his secret

• 03:06 - 03:09

  lair. So beastly feline, you can picture like a big

• 03:10 - 03:14

  beastly cat, enjoyed the solitude or enjoyed the loneliness of

• 03:15 - 03:15

  his secret lair.

• 03:16 - 03:18

  His secret hiding place picture like a dark cave.

• 03:20 - 03:22

  Okay, I tried to lure my dog into the backyard

• 03:23 - 03:25

  by leaving a track of treats to the door.

• 03:25 - 03:26

  That's the example that I gave you earlier.

• 03:27 - 03:32

  Lure again means attract, um, guide them to get to

• 03:32 - 03:33

  get them to go wherever you want.

• 03:33 - 03:38

  Basically. Okay, so these air my examples, please note that

• 03:39 - 03:42

  your task for today as an often vocabulary sins, you're

• 03:42 - 03:44

  going to be asked to use the words in writing.

• 03:44 - 03:46

  So this is a good example of how to use

• 03:47 - 03:49

  whatever vocab terms we have in sentences.

• 03:51 - 03:54

  Okay, let's take a look at the exercises for today.

• 03:55 - 03:56

  Keep calm and use context.

• 03:57 - 03:59

  Clues. So in exercise, A were being asked to use

• 04:00 - 04:02

  context clues to fill in the blanks using today's book

• 04:02 - 04:04

  had words, So let's check it out.

• 04:05 - 04:07

  Always scorning people in her food.

• 04:08 - 04:10

  Princess the cat is known for being blank.

• 04:11 - 04:14

  So using context clues, we can tell from always scorning

• 04:14 - 04:17

  people always like being rude to people pushing people around.

• 04:18 - 04:21

  Princess The Cat is known for being hottie kind of

• 04:21 - 04:25

  arrogant. This morning she emerges from her blank, which is

• 04:25 - 04:28

  a cardboard box filled to solve blankets from context clues.

• 04:29 - 04:31

  She came out of her lair, her little hiding space.

• 04:32 - 04:36

  Okay, next her owner begins to blank papers at his

• 04:36 - 04:39

  desk. The Onley vocab term from today's lesson that can

• 04:39 - 04:43

  work with this is Shuffle shuffles papers at his desk.

• 04:44 - 04:46

  Then he spots his cat and tries to blank her

• 04:46 - 04:49

  toward him with a bowl of milk, using context clues

• 04:50 - 04:52

  tries to bring her towards him.

• 04:53 - 04:54

  So the word that we have is lure.

• 04:55 - 04:55

  Remember that means attract.

• 04:57 - 05:01

  Princess ignores him and watches that dumb dog Dino, which

• 05:02 - 05:03

  is a liberation, by the way, three words in a

• 05:03 - 05:06

  row that start with D trot past her, his blank

• 05:06 - 05:07

  quick and impatient.

• 05:08 - 05:10

  So the clue here is trots pastor, which means, like,

• 05:11 - 05:12

  kind of walk past her.

• 05:12 - 05:13

  So we know that this has to do with Gate,

• 05:14 - 05:15

  which means a manner of walking.

• 05:17 - 05:19

  Panting, his tongue, hanging out, dino pads over to the

• 05:20 - 05:20

  aquarium toe.

• 05:20 - 05:23

  Watch the turtle and other blank creatures so they even

• 05:23 - 05:25

  use the word aquarium with the same route.

• 05:25 - 05:27

  Aqua. The word is aquatic creatures.

• 05:29 - 05:32

  Princess doesn't like, doesn't feel like playing any of her

• 05:33 - 05:33

  blank tricks on Dino.

• 05:34 - 05:36

  So obviously the word is coming here.

• 05:37 - 05:38

  Her clever little tricks.

• 05:38 - 05:41

  Instead, she decides to blank in the corner next to

• 05:41 - 05:41

  the door.

• 05:42 - 05:46

  Remember, we said picture something lurking in the shadow, hiding

• 05:47 - 05:50

  out, waiting to make their move that's lurk, waiting for

• 05:50 - 05:53

  her opportunity to escape the house and be alone for

• 05:53 - 05:57

  the one thing that is blank loves is her blank.

• 05:58 - 05:59

  The one thing that is that this feel.

• 06:00 - 06:00

  I'm sorry.

• 06:00 - 06:01

  This cat loves is her.

• 06:03 - 06:05

  Well, the clue is right in the beginning of the

• 06:05 - 06:05

  last sentence, be alone.

• 06:06 - 06:08

  So which word means to be alone?

• 06:08 - 06:09

  That would be solitude.

• 06:10 - 06:12

  Okay, we only have one more activity, which is exercise

• 06:13 - 06:14

  d here.

• 06:15 - 06:16

  If it's correct, we're going to write correct.

• 06:16 - 06:18

  If it's not, we have to say which words should

• 06:18 - 06:18

  go there.

• 06:19 - 06:21

  So the first one, the dancers in the musical cats

• 06:22 - 06:23

  moved with feline grace.

• 06:23 - 06:23

  That's correct.

• 06:24 - 06:26

  We know that the actors are supposed to be cat,

• 06:26 - 06:28

  so it looks like they have the grace of a

• 06:28 - 06:32

  cat feline to the lion emerged from his gate rested

• 06:33 - 06:33

  and ready to hunt.

• 06:34 - 06:36

  This obviously doesn't make sense because gate is a matter

• 06:37 - 06:37

  of walking so you can't emerge.

• 06:38 - 06:39

  Room, manner of walking.

• 06:39 - 06:43

  The answer should be lair number three.

• 06:43 - 06:46

  For people tired of the rat race, the perfect vacation

• 06:46 - 06:49

  spot offers peace and solitude That makes sense.

• 06:50 - 06:54

  Peace, being alone, kind of go together for the policeman

• 06:54 - 06:56

  walked to the scene of the crime with a strong

• 06:57 - 06:57

  and steady shuffle.

• 06:59 - 07:01

  Okay, a shuffle is jumbling, mixing things around, so that

• 07:01 - 07:02

  doesn't work.

• 07:02 - 07:04

  And the context flew here is the word walked.

• 07:05 - 07:06

  So it should be one of our vote.

• 07:06 - 07:08

  Have terms related to walk in, which would be gate

• 07:10 - 07:11

  and number five.

• 07:11 - 07:14

  The store owners lurk potential customers away from their competitors

• 07:15 - 07:17

  with lower prices and free hot dogs.

• 07:17 - 07:19

  So they're attracting customers.

• 07:20 - 07:22

  It's not lurk, it would be lore.

• 07:24 - 07:29

  Okay, your task for today, guys On a separate piece

• 07:29 - 07:31

  of paper, you're gonna write sentences using each of the

• 07:31 - 07:33

  words just as I did earlier in the earlier in

• 07:33 - 07:33

  the video.

• 07:34 - 07:37

  The sentences have to show that you understand the meaning

• 07:37 - 07:37

  of the word.

• 07:38 - 07:41

  You have the option of also writing a paragraph if

• 07:41 - 07:43

  you'd like, it doesn't have to just be sentences.

• 07:45 - 07:46

  Okay, that is all for today.

• 07:47 - 07:49

  As usual, email me if you have any questions and

• 07:50 - 07:50

  good luck.
