RE: Vocab-ability–254 (voc, vok = call, speak) – A More Powerful Vocabulary (earn UpVotes with “Vocab Practice” exercise)

[tristancarax]

MY VOCAB PRACTICE:

1. Advocate:
   I'm an advocate for eating healthy food which means I get attacked by the people who think that all food is healthy.

2. Evoke:
   In the past, in the shadows under the windows seal, I've waited for that pie to evoke my belly so that I may snatch it when it is put out to cool down.

3. Revoke:
   Between the events of Sandy Beach and Taylor's passing, the law was revoked that would have sent first time felons to prison for life.

4. Invoke:
   I will invoke my right to speak here at the council meeting when Major Tom puts down the control to the machine.

5. Provoke:
   It was me who stood behind the cage provoking the cobra to attack by waving my hand in front of it.

Good work!

Is that Major Tom the REAL Major Tom?

[tristancarax]

Yes, that is who I had flowing in my thoughts when I wrote this. ;-)

I believe the Major is still drifting in far-off space. Neither he nor Ground Control is in control of his machine. So, it might be a while before you can speak.

Unless, of course, you seize control. :-)
