This week we continue our vocabulary-building series, “The Closing Word.” Each week we provide a new word to help build your vocabulary and show you an example of how to use it.
This week’s closing word:
propitious
Pronounced: (pro-PISH-us)
Adjective:
presenting favorable circumstances; likely to result in or show signs of success
From Vocabulary.com: “When the timing of something is propitious, it’s likely to turn out well. A propitious time for taking a big test is when you’ve studied hard and had a good night’s sleep.”
Example:
“Sometimes a lack of winter inventory creates propitious market conditions for sellers who take the plunge by listing in December.”
