MY VOCAB PRACTICE

#1 Juvenile
Juvenile offenders are usually kept in rehabilitation homes pending when they come of age.

#2 Civil
In 1999, Nigeria returned to civil rule after years of dictatorship.

#3 Civil
The English teacher suspended her class until we became civil.

#4 Puerile
The air hostess lost her job because of her puerile attitudes.

#5 Tactile
John seems to have a tactile memory of the night he was kidnapped.

PS: Until now, I haven't come across the word Puerile. Thanks for this great lesson. By the way, I struggled to make a sentence with the word Tactile. I keep wondering why you skipped it

[majes.tytyty]

Good work!

Throughout VOCAB-ABILITY, I did not always make a sample sentence for all the words. Even if there were 5 or more words, I generally limited the number of sentences to 4.

Also, I probably could not come up with a suitable sentence for "tactile." So, now, for my readers, I have done some research, and penned the following...

The creature has no eyes, so it finds its way around by using the tactile appendages protruding from its forehead.

[gandhibaba]

Thanks for the extra lesson. I appreciate this a lot. I hope I didn't bother you too much. Take care sir.
