RE: Vocab-ability–138 (mater, matr = mother) – A More Powerful Vocabulary (earn UpVotes with “Vocab Practice” exercise)

MY VOCAB PRACTICE

1.) Maternal

Joanna's inexhaustible maternal love for her only son, Jonathan, was his main source of strength in coping with his friend's death.

2.) Maternity

"The maternity ward is a very busy section of the hospital, thanks to all the playaz out there in A-town, who be pimpin' without skimpin'," Paul quipped, in his usual, snarky, manner.

3.) Matricide

To perform matricide is easily one of the worst atrocities in human existence, it's beyond evil and completely unnatural.

4.) Matriarch

The matriarch customarily ranks second in hierarchy to the patriarch, but many cultures place male offspring of a certain age or maturity above women in all matters of decision making.

5.) Matrix

Early pioneers in the fields of mathematics and physics formed the matrix for the advanced computers that most of us now take for granted, despite how integral they've become in our day-to-day affairs.
