<p>Good work, Joe.</p>
<p>Thanks so much joe0314. I really appreciate it. I'll start formatting the words and put them in a PDF file for everyone to download and print.</p>
<p>If I get a chance I'll format it for those index card sheets of paper.</p>
<p>here are some my words:
manifesto
pathos
plaudits
obsequious
since i am chinese and only have chinese meaning for those words, so I think you have to look them up if you don't know them, or if you are chinese then i will tell them in chinese</p>
<p>Thank you so much joe!</p>
