Word of the Day

As a tribute to my preparations to take the GRE for Graduate School sometime in the next decade, I will be including a vocabulary word of the day to help me study. Today, the word does not come from my over-priced box of Kaplan GRE Vocab. flashcards, guaranteed to raise your score or your money back. The word today is "compunction", courtesy of Erin.

Compunction:
1.a feeling of uneasiness or anxiety of the conscience caused by regret for doing wrong or causing pain; contrition; remorse.
2.any uneasiness or hesitation about the rightness of an action.


I feel my score rising already. Like the degrees at UVSC.

This word is brought to you by dictionary.com and Erin Hattaway. And by the letter L. And by the number 8.
