freedom to perform lets grab the opportunity! To grab
opportunity when it presents itself, to use it well, is a good
idea. However, never snatch anything that does not belong
to you. To usurp power, rob or procure something that
does not belong to you is evil. Could you grasp that? So
now we move ahead, clutching the resources we have. We
have them in a tight grip lest we lose it and someone seizes
them. Seizing something is to grab or capture something
forcibly. But you can hold a childs hand and lead him on
to greater heights.
Hmm, so have we got you cogitating over action verbs?
Then you must be pondering, thinking deeply, mulling and
reflecting. But do not muse away your time to think and
to become lost in thought are not really the same!
Contemplating and deliberating on key decisions is
important, though. A careful review or meditation of
things that are central to life like your passion and career
choices is imperative. Now there are times when you dont
base everything on logic, and theres room for speculation.
Lifes a gamble, ultimately, so why not invest some efforts
in the hope of handsome gains and bright futures?
Do you get the know-it-all feeling about action verbs
now? Well, you might be aware of them, but to learn to
differentiate all of them is a matter of time because to
understand is to know thoroughly. Only then can we
comprehend everything, grasp every idea in the recesses
of the mind. Do you appreciate what weve said so far?
Then you must have captured all the necessary
information. It is also vital to be able to discern what is
correct and what is not see it clearly. Cognition is an
integral aspect of the functioning of the human brain.
When you cognise, you perceive things and acquire
knowledge.
Hope you have cleared your doubts about the
importance of distinguishing action verbs by now. If not,
never hesitate to clarify unless you make ideas
intelligible to yourself, you can never use them. Filter out
stray thoughts that distract and cloud vision. Go ahead
and cleanse the rust off your language skills make it pure
and correct. Keep up your efforts to refine your language,
because everyone welcomes impeccable speech.
Enough of action? This was just a window to the
voluminous world of action verbs. Some words may be
similar in meaning, but do not mean the same. Always
ensure before you use some words interchangeably and
create an embarrassing situation. Chances are that you may
be changing the meaning altogether, or inventing a
preposterous sentence. So take care and happy
experimenting!
