Words to Describe People

Today in class we made a new vocabulary list of words that are commonly used in stories to describe a person. We decided it was important to know these words because they are very useful in our everyday speech and writing.

Here is the list:

angry
beautiful
brave
careful
careless
clever
crazy
cute
dangerous
exciting
famous
friendly
happy
interesting
lucky
old
poor
popular
rich
sad
thin
ugly
unlucky
young


This link will take you to an interactive game to better learn the definitions of these words. The game provides you with several English definitions as well as definitions in your native language. Take the time to read a couple definitions so that you have a good understanding of what the words mean. For homework I'd like you each to write a sentence of your own for each word that shows me that you understand its meaning. Please post these sentences as a response to this post.
