Glossary: Family and Personality traits

Make entries: 1

You and your classmates are going to create a collaborative glossary with the vocabulary related to family and personality learnt in this module. The idea is to create a glossary that you can all check and revise whenever you want, and even print to take it with you. These are the instructions:

1. Each student will have to include AT LEAST ONE TERM in the glossary, but of course you can create more than one.

2. When creating an entry, you will have to include:

the word or expression,
its pronunciation (using the microphone tool),
a definition or synonym and
an example,
an image (optional).

The first word strong-willed has been created for you as an example.

-----------------------------------

This task will be self-assessed by each student and supervised by the teacher. Before you publish your contributions, please make sure they meet the following

Indicators of achievement:

1. The student has added at least one entry.

2. Each entry includes:

- a word or expression
- a recording of the pronunciation
- a definition or synonym
- an example

Here you can see how to do it. When you finish, click on Save changes.

strong-willed

by Ana Dopico - Wednesday, 29 September 2021, 1:08 PM

If you are strong-willed, you are determined to behave in a particular way although there might be good reasons for not doing so. The opposite would be weak-willed.

Eg. I've always said that when there's a will, there's a way. When I long for something, nothing will stop me from getting there. We can all be strong-willed, it's not that difficult, but the vast majority prefers making up excuses to commiting themselves. That's the easiest thing to do, I suppose.
