Discriminating between Similar Words
Provide a short opening paragraph that clarifies your purpose and points of discussion.
In a one--to--two--page discussion, examine your assigned word pair and discuss the meaning, form, and other attributes of each word. Provide two different definitions for each word, from two different sources. Also provide information about each word's part of speech; each word's etymology (language origins, usage information, special notes [if any]; and connections [if any] between the two words). If a word has multiple meanings or uses, explain those. Also provide a statement that explains the precise differences between the two words, and offer some speculation about why these words are often confused or misused. Finally, offer sentences that demonstrate the correct use of each word's primary definition.
Also identify your source(s), using both internal citations and a reference list in APA form. Do not simply copy and paste information for this assignment. Write coherent, readable explanations, organized in logical and readable paragraphs. You should probably do some additional research for this assignment.
