Yeah,
- 00:01 - 00:04
good morning MS Patel, Sorry if I sound a little weird,
- 00:04 - 00:08
I'm currently getting over I believe like a cold or something.
- 00:08 - 00:10
So my voice is kind of a little
- 00:11 - 00:14
funky, but I did figure out how to do this.
- 00:15 - 00:18
The question was top five takeaways.
- 00:18 - 00:21
When it comes to grammar and punctuation things
- 00:21 - 00:23
you think everyone needs to keep in mind.
- 00:23 - 00:26
I said when it comes to grammar and punctuation,
- 00:26 - 00:31
I think the top five things everyone needs to keep in mind is what to do when you have,
- 00:32 - 00:36
for example, run on sentences or how to use coordinating conjunctions, right?
- 00:36 - 00:37
The fanboys.
- 00:37 - 00:41
Um being able to make two sentences work
- 00:41 - 00:44
using transitional words and knowing the number,
- 00:44 - 00:48
the number of whether it's to write it out or just write the number itself
- 00:48 - 00:51
and having proper word use. Um
- 00:53 - 00:57
the second question was your favorite word from the vocabulary expansion pack, it,
- 00:57 - 01:00
assignment state your word and explain why it's your favorite.
- 01:00 - 01:07
So I have two words that I really did like and feel like
- 01:08 - 01:11
I relate to those in my everyday life.
- 01:11 - 01:17
So the first one was transcend which means to rise above or go beyond the limits.
- 01:18 - 01:18
I
- 01:19 - 01:26
I like the word transcend and the definition of it in meaning just because I feel like
- 01:27 - 01:28
I
- 01:29 - 01:32
I did this when I joined the military
- 01:33 - 01:38
and it was a Marine corps of all branches because in my family,
- 01:38 - 01:41
they have a really high believe vince in
- 01:43 - 01:44
young females
- 01:44 - 01:47
that are of the hispanic type should be,
- 01:48 - 01:52
stay at home raise kids, have a normal job
- 01:53 - 01:54
and cook for the family,
- 01:55 - 02:01
but I didn't want that and I wanted to show my younger siblings, not siblings,
- 02:01 - 02:04
my younger cousins and just show my family that
- 02:05 - 02:08
times have changed and things are different and that I could make
- 02:08 - 02:11
a career out of this for myself and get far in it,
- 02:12 - 02:14
which would be to travel the world
- 02:15 - 02:18
and go out of my comfort zone to see this and
- 02:18 - 02:21
see what I could do and what I could accomplish.
- 02:21 - 02:22
So I felt
- 02:22 - 02:26
transcend was a really good word that I could relate to on a person I don't know
- 02:27 - 02:30
and the other word that I really liked was tenacious,
- 02:30 - 02:33
which was filled with a yearning for change
- 02:33 - 02:34
and
- 02:35 - 02:37
like I said with my family and such,
- 02:38 - 02:42
I want to make a change and I want to be able to show that
- 02:43 - 02:44
just because I'm a female,
- 02:46 - 02:48
it doesn't stop us or limit us from doing
- 02:49 - 02:51
just as much as a male can do.
- 02:51 - 02:52
And
- 02:54 - 02:54
I,
- 02:54 - 02:56
I like to see things change and evolve
- 02:56 - 02:59
because the world is evolving in different ways that
- 03:00 - 03:03
we don't know the limits to and I feel like
- 03:04 - 03:05
we're,
- 03:05 - 03:09
Our generation is the next one's coming about and we're the ones that
- 03:09 - 03:12
are going to show a change in the world or probably make one
- 03:12 - 03:13
and
- 03:13 - 03:14
I feel like
- 03:15 - 03:19
this also relates to what I want to have a career in which is special education.
- 03:19 - 03:21
I want to be able to
- 03:21 - 03:24
learn new ways and find new
- 03:25 - 03:27
new ideas or
- 03:28 - 03:31
things that work with special needs kids and be able to
- 03:31 - 03:35
work with them and have them find a way in life that
- 03:35 - 03:37
accommodates them.
- 03:37 - 03:40
So I thought those two were my favorite words
- 03:40 - 03:42
that I related to and then
- 03:42 - 03:43
more personal meaning.
- 03:44 - 03:47
And then the last question, number one rule,
- 03:47 - 03:48
you personally need to remember when
- 03:48 - 03:51
writing papers for college something you personally
- 03:51 - 03:55
need to keep at the forefront of your mind when writing papers I said
- 03:58 - 04:00
excuse me.
- 04:00 - 04:06
Um I said I believe the number one rule for me to remember is making sure I
- 04:06 - 04:08
use the right transitions and punctuation in my
- 04:08 - 04:11
essays because from the assignments we've had this week
- 04:12 - 04:19
it made me see it in a different way that I didn't really understand at first, which is
- 04:19 - 04:23
using the transition words using the punctuation using the
- 04:23 - 04:27
commas using different words for the word a lot
- 04:27 - 04:28
or
- 04:29 - 04:34
making it sound more professional in an intellectual way and not
- 04:34 - 04:38
just speaking as a kid or speaking every day to a person
- 04:39 - 04:47
and it shows how much just 11 simple comma or one simple word change can make
- 04:47 - 04:52
it sound all the better than how we talk at a normal day to day.
- 04:52 - 04:58
And I like that. So I think that is one thing I need to remember when it comes to
- 04:58 - 05:01
writing my essays or doing work
- 05:01 - 05:04
and having it just sound
- 05:04 - 05:06
and look more presenting
