MY VOCAB PRACTICE

Good work! And thanks for participating in the Vocab Practices exercises. Hope to see you in Round 2.
p.s. In India, 1 millimeter is considered plenty of space for any vehicle to maneuver past, during traffic jams and often when moving at about 20 kph. Of course, that tiny distance often disappears, with predictable results.
MY VOCAB PRACTICE
I generally struggle to see the millimeter lines on a ruler without my glasses on.
I was born during the last millennium.
Most Gen X people don't feel they can relate to Gen Y's, then along cam e the Millenials and they were all like, "Don't even go there!"
Don't ever step on a millipede, they give off a really foul odour.
I can never remember how many million vests you need to advance from plankton to minnow to redfish etc.

What are those "millimeter lines" on a ruler of which you speak? I haven't seen any of them for years, so I thought someone erased them all. :-)

Good work! And thanks for participating in the Vocab Practices exercises. Hope to see you in Round 2.
I will :)
MY VOCAB PRACTICE:
The laser-guided precision machinery was able to cut parts to an accuracy of a tenth of a milimeter.
Businesses spent millions of pounds on trying to avert the millennium bug in their software.
Millennials tend to shun traditional car buying and either travel by public transport or by taxi.
Millipedes tend to make tasty meals for hedgehogs.
In the 1950's a million was a large number, but more than 50 years later it seems small - you have to be a billionaire to be rich, and a trillion in debt is nothing.
Good work! And thanks for participating in the Vocab Practices exercises. Hope to see you in Round 2.
A trillion dollars of US debt may be nothing, but the 23 trillion is gonna be something. Something very unpleasant, I believe. Good luck!!

My vocab Practice
1.-The water filled every millimeter of the apartment when it flooded.
2.- With how tainted and battered our planet is, I don't think it's going to make it to the end of the millennium.
3.-when I was a child a millipede stung me and I had my finger swollen for several days.
4.- They say there's no happiness in the money, but how cheerful I was with a million dollars in my bank account.
