Words

One word that has played an important role in history is the word, revolutionary. Throughout history there is constant change and revolution to new ideas, movements or government, for example the Revolutionary War, revolutions in culture (the modern art movement).


One word that has played an important role in my life is the word, acceptance. I've had to learn how to accept different and extreme changes in my life and also the smaller acceptances that may not drastically change my life but something that I need to accept happened or will happen.


Two words that the meaning has changed over time are the words, hoe and tight. Hoe used to mean a gardening tool, however today, the word is more associated to women who are slutty or "easy". The word tight used to refer to things that would be bound closely together and now people use that word to describe their relationship with another person, they would say that they are "tight" with their close friends.
