Word of the Week

Definitely

 

Meaning: to do something without doubt.

 

Example of using it in a sentence “I shall do my homework defiantly on time this week, because I have planned my time out well."

 

The root word comes from the Latin word meaning to defined, bounded or limited or more to complete something with in a set time. this comes ideas comes from the finite bit in the middle of the word. So, when you say you are definitely coming to an event you need to turn up before the event ends.   

 

Spelling tip: we are going to help ourselves with the “sion” sound at the end and by breaking the word up like this.

                                                               de + fin + it + e + ly

 

Use the word as many times throughout the week. This can be verbally, in your written work or listen out for other people using it.
