ACTIVITY TITLE: Making Definitions
LEARNING TARGET: Make definitions of unfamiliar words.
REFERENCE: English 10 Learner’s Material pp. 130 – 131
Definitions are core part of any dictionary. Writing basic definitions require skill, practice,
and sometimes help.
Read the basic guidelines to follow when writing a definition:
1. Just the (dictionary) facts.
. A definition should contain the information about the word and what the word
refers to.
Do not include usage notes in a definition. Get to the point. Clarity, brevity,
conciseness are better when writing definitions.
2. Avoid complicated terms.
Avoid terms that are more complicated or more technical than the term being
defined.
3. Avoid specific terms.
. Use conventional English words in explanations whenever possible. The more
widespread a term is, the more users will benefit.
. Stay away from jargon.
Highly technical terms should be avoided whenever possible. Although there
are cases which involve the use of a technical term in a specialized field, it
should be minimal.
4. Avoid circularity.
It is not good to define a word with that same word in the definition. Use
different terms.
5. Make it simple.
Write with simple grammatical structure rather than the complex ones. Place
key terms and short explanations near the start of the definition.
ACTIVITY: List five unfamiliar words in the story Inferno and make definition by

Translated by Morris Bishop
She used to let her golden hair fly free
For the wind to toy and tangle and molest;
Her eyes were brighter than the radiant west.
(Seldom they shine so now.) I used to see
Pity look out of those deep eyes on me.
(“It was false pity,” you would now protest)
I had love’s tinder heaped within my breast;
What wonder that the flame burned furiously?
She did not walk in any mortal way,
But with angelic progress; when she spoke,
Unearthly voices sang in unison.
She seemed divine among the dreary folk
O earth. You say she is not so today?
Well, though the bow’s unbent, the wound bleeds on.
