The meaning and usage of the following difficult words from Amanda Poem should be clear to students before writing class 10 Term 2 Subjective question answers. Some words are written in the poem itself while others are required to write Amanda’s answers. Amanda difficult words with their meanings and sentences are given below. You can frame your sentences and submit them in the comment section to our expert teachers for checking.
Line by line thorough reading of the lessons is even more important now. As we know that CBSE is focussing on Competency-based questions that include more vocabulary based questions, perception and inference based questions. To be able to answer these types of newly added questions, you need to expand your word power, that is, vocabulary. So, it’s an initiative by Essayshout to make students understand the meaning of difficult words encountered in CBSE class 10th textbooks. However, knowing a word’s meaning is of no use until and unless you learn to write it in sentences. That’s why we have included 3 sentences; one related to the story of the lesson and two general sentences to exemplify the new word’s correct usage. In addition, you can frame your own sentences to test yourself and get your sentences checked by our expert teachers.
