In real life there is a show called Jeopardy. It is a game show where people risk losing the money they have already to possibly get more money. That shows that it is correctly used. This word is appropriately used in this context because game shows usually are where you have to risk something to win. The tone of this word is smartness because you have to be really smart to win this game and you only have a certain amount of time to answer the hard question. natalie_czajka https://padlet.com/natalie_czajka/6x19whc9u1qn/wish/258985672 2018-05-08 16:22:42 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_czajka/6x19whc9u1qn/wish/258985672 Galaxy is a collection of stars. It is used in real life in the movie Guardians of the Galaxy. In the movie they are aliens and people from space that are trying to stop an evil villain from trying to stop him from destroying the universe with the power infinity stone. This word is correctly used because in the movie they are protecting space which has collections of stars. This is showing that it is used in the right context because outer space is what they are protecting and it includes all the stars. The tone of this word is importance. This is because they are trying to save the world and it is super important to stop Ronan before he destroys all of it. natalie_czajka https://padlet.com/natalie_czajka/6x19whc9u1qn/wish/258992397 2018-05-08 16:38:50 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_czajka/6x19whc9u1qn/wish/258992397 Epic means large, grand, or remarkable.

This poster uses the word correctly because it is saying that the sloth is really lacking energy which is true because they move really slow and are tired all the time. It is used in the right context because sloths are always super lazy and sleep most of the day. The tone of this word is careless because it is saying that he is super tired and he can't shake it, but he doesn't seem to care because it looks like he is just relaxing. natalie_czajka https://padlet.com/natalie_czajka/6x19whc9u1qn/wish/258999065 2018-05-08 16:55:04 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_czajka/6x19whc9u1qn/wish/258999065 Nepotism is when people with strong influence favor a relative or a friend. Usually this is in a work place situation where the boss hires someone they know even if they stink and they favor them. Nepotism is used in the episode of "The Office" called "Nepotism." Michael Scott, the boss, hires his nephew. He sucks at his job but Michael refuses to fire him even though he is rude and can't do his job. This is used in the right context and is correctly used because it is showing favor to someone they know by giving them a job and favoring them. The tone of this word is again humorous because the whole show is a comedy and the episode about this, although showing nepotism, is funny because of the way that it is shown natalie_czajka https://padlet.com/natalie_czajka/6x19whc9u1qn/wish/259014707 2018-05-08 17:29:32 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_czajka/6x19whc9u1qn/wish/259014707
