9 was supposed to be mixture. i �ll probably add something about dough or baking to my definition  6 was supposed to be alternative. But I suppose option also works. |

1. criticize, put down, dis (in US slang) 2. beg, panhandle 3. democracy, republic 4. broadcast, air 5. sensitive, empathetic, sympathetic 6. option, choice 7. addiction? 8. sure, confident 9. mixture 10. habit Alternative "officially" refers to only two things, but it is commonly used as in your definition. "Adamant" means insisting on something, so it �s a bit different from sure or confident. Bruce |

FrauSue, you �re really complicating things with all those synonyms of yours...  *deep sigh*
I tested the word lists on my students today and was shocked about how hard they found it to find the right words. But as soon as I gave them first letters, they got much better.
