Word Knowledge Video
My book, The ASVAB Tutor’s Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension Study Guide, consists of over 500 vocabulary words. I present each of the over 500 words in 2 sentences that provide context clues to the meaning of each word. These are the vocabulary words I review in my ASVAB prep course.
Yesterday I presented an ASVAB vocabulary question. I present the word “wince”.
This is one of many words that could appear on the Word Knowledge section of the ASVAB.
The question is:
What does the word “wince” mean?
- Win
- Shrink back
- Steal
- Judge
Today I present a video where my cat, Mr. Cuddles® presents the word “wince” in a sentence that provides context clues. He is dressed as a boxer. In the video, he says, “In my last fight, I watched my opponent wince. He shrank back from the blow and from the pain of my punch.”
The word “wince” means to shrink back.
