Tugas 1 (Media Permainan Scrabble) - Pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris Berbantuan Komputer

 

Hey everyone! I'm Agustine Sekar Widyasari, but you can just call me Sekar. It's okay if you want to call me Agustine, as long as you call my name. I want to share my experience of playing "Scrabble." Have you ever played this game?

According to Wikipedia, Scrabble is a board game that is played by 2, 3, or 4 people. It uses a 15×15 board with squares on it and a large number of letters on small tiles. This is the first time I tried this game seriously with my classmates. It's quite difficult because you have to think about the vocabulary that has been provided.

In this game, I failed, and my points were reduced due to a penalty because I was really confused about what words to enter on the board. 

1. Pit (Noun)

a large hole in the ground, or a silghtly low area in any surface.

Example : "These pits in my skin are from when I had chinkenpox."

2. Muggy (Adjective)

(of weather) very warm and humid. When the weather is muggy, it is unplseasantly Warm and the air contains a lot of water.

Example : "What a muggy day!"

3. Er (Noun)

the sound that people often make when they pause in the middle of what they are saying or pause before they speak, often because they are deciding what to say.

Example: "Is he handsome?" "Er, well - he's got a nice friendly sort of face, though he's not exactly handsome."

4. Ark (Noun)

(in the Bible) a large wooden ship built by Noah in order to save his family and a male and female of every type of animal when the world was covered by a flood.

Example: Many Ethiopians believe that Aksum is home to the Ark of the Covenant.

Labial sounds are consonant sounds made with the two lips.

Example : /m/ and /p/ are labial sounds.

6. Ray (Noun)

a narrow beam of light, heat, etc. travelling in a straight line from its place of origin.

Example : A ray of sunshine shone through a gap in the clouds.

Those are some words that unfamiliar to me. If there is a word that is new or unfamiliar to us, we have to look for the meaning of the word to add to our own vocabulary. Maybe that's all from me, Thank you.
