RE: Vocab-ability Prefix–297 (mis__, miso__ = hate) – A More Powerful Vocabulary (earn UpVotes with “Vocab Practice” exercise)

"MY VOCAB PRACTICE."

  1. Misanthropy.
    I would not blame animals for their misanthropy, because some humans do not treat animals very well.

  2. Misogynist.
    We knew the speaker was a misogynist the moment he started speaking against women in such a spiteful way.

  3. Misandry.
    The women at the protest seemed to encourage misandry when they started chanting against the men who were chanting back at them, standing in a group across the street.

  4. Misopedia.
    Sometimes even the most patient person will suffer from misopedia when there's a screaming child running around wild in a restaurant.

  5. Misoneism.
    A lot of people who are uneducated and have not been outside their little bubble may suffer from misoneism and may not even know it.

  6. Miso soup:
    At the restaurant, the miso soup did not seem to attract any of the eight people at our table.

Good work!

And as I commented under another person's exercise, many animals would have good reason to be misanthropes!! Think of factory-farmed chickens or beef or pigs, and think of wild animals chased and slaughtered by trophy hunters.

Damn, I think I'm becoming a misanthrope!!! (A short step from misopedia, indeed.)

Yeah, I agree. Indeed.

PS: Thanks!
