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:
Pronounced: (reh-SPLEN-dehnt)
Adjective:
having great beauty and splendor
From Vocabulary.com: “When people or things are resplendent, they are dazzling, splendiferous, glorious, or lovely. The adjective resplendent comes from a Latin word that means ‘to shine brightly.’”
If you’re looking for one knock-out word to describe a shining new kitchen, resplendent might be a good one to grab!
Example:
“The renovated kitchen, complete with high-end luxury appliances and new fixtures is positivelyresplendent.”
