getting a 2100

See people? You need to start learning prefixes, suffixes, and roots and stop memorizing words.

</p>

<p>Although I am knowledgeable about roots and affixes, I am not the biggest fan of them, and they certainly are much less helpful on the SAT than is memorizing word lists. I like to know the precise definitions of words, not approximate possibilities derived from the general uses of their parts.</p>

</p>

<p>Really? For me, roots and affixes are actually more useful…</p>

<p>Well, I guess methods differ from person to person.</p>

</p>

<p>I find your preciosity in this matter queer.</p>

You will come across this most frequently in medical terminology, principally in gelastic seizure, a form of epilepsy in which brief bursts of pathological laughter are a symptom.

</p>

<p>Oh, I am happy that I do not suffer from this condition.</p>

<p>But that is an interesting word. It rolls trippingly off the tongue.</p>

</p>

<p>Yes, some people employ effective methods, whereas others do not.</p>

<p>I kid! :)</p>

</p>

<p>We should contribute to its revival on CC.</p>

</p>

<p>We are no longer on good terms, it seems. I am besieged by you at every turn! :(</p>

<p>A relevant example immediately comes to mind: </p>

<p>Some debaters on the Science-Religion thread possess agelastic tendencies. :)</p>

</p>

<p>In that same vein:</p>

<p>A poster in the “getting a 2100” thread seemed to possess agelasticism by feeling assaulted by what was explicitly qualified as a joke, though I doubt the sincerity of that conveyance; I do not, however, let that doubt influence me so greatly that your facilitation of my in-that-same-vein sentence goes unused.</p>

Wow, I feel like I am listening to an incredibly embittered married couple arguing.

</p>

<p>It’s over, silverturtle. I’m leaving you.</p>

<p>Goodbye.</p>

<p>You triflin’,good for nothing type of brother
Silly me,why haven’t I found another

Instead of a scrub like you who don’t know what a man’s about</p>

[realitybugll]

<p>Just to be clear. We have to doubt ksarmand’s deconstruction of agelastic. I mean, it’s pretty obvious he/she looked it up.</p>

[benhpark]

<p>Silverturtle and ksarmand were a couple?</p>

<p>btw, yes, Direct Hits books pwnd in vocab because a lot of the words from those books matched with the words tested on the SAT.</p>

</p>

<p>I do not take kindly to allegations that so directly attack my credibility, especially if you have no way of proving them.</p>

<p>As I have said already, having a Greek teacher who is overeager about teaching her students her native language works wonders. Furthermore, I am well acquainted with my roots and affixes.</p>

<p>“Gelos” is a word I am quite familiar with; it just so happened that it was useful here. I’m sure there are plenty of words I wouldn’t be able to deconstruct in the same fashion I did previously.</p>
