SAT word list

<< < (5/8) > >>

Saladin:
Adjure

Ad>to
jur>Oath

So essentially to do something under oath, but the real meaning is to command someone under oath or in solemnness.

It does not fit in exactly, but the roots go some way to reminding us the meaning if we forget....

Inscrutable!

She was kind enough to forgive your rude behavior and rather see it as jubilant as opposed to have blatant disregard for a lady's personal space....

Saladin:
Inscrutable

In>>Means "not" or the opposite of the original meaning.
Scrut>>Means "Examine"
"able">>To be able to do something

So basically not being able to examine something....

Essentially the meaning of the word is "Un-examinable" or "Incomprehensible"
