Word Knowledge
Yesterday I presented an ASVAB vocabulary question.
What does “obscure” mean?
As an ASVAB tutor, I remind my students of the importance of studying ASVAB vocabulary words to prepare for the Word Knowledge section of the test. Yesterday I asked what “obscure” means. Obscure has a prefix ob-. The prefix ob- means against. In my book, The ASVAB Tutor’s Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension Study Guide, I presented the word “obscure” in 2 sentences in my book. The first sentence was: The view of the ocean was obscure because of the fog. The second sentence was: The cloudy sky is causing an obscure moon tonight. I really can’t see the moon very well. I present the second sentence in video form where my cat, Mr. Cuddles, presents the sentence in a video. Obscure means dark or not easily seen. Did you know the answer?
