Andoura: Got loooollllll ?; +853|6636|Montreal, Qc, Canada

Like no joke, a 15% session work in english.

k so it's only about giving a definition of the words in red, the definition have to be in context also. (it's about a British book called : ''The one That Got Away'' by Chris Ryan

So here are the words, I only have 3 left...

1- For the past two days an eerie silence had prevailed in the grounds of the old hospital.

2- The guys were pouring with sweat inside their black kit, but elated that things had gone well.

3- Preparations for the Gulf were playing havoc with the annual rugby knockout competition between six squadron teams.

If you don't know what it is in context plz if someone could only give me the definition of the word.

Thx in advance to everybody who will help (Karma for every good help (have 10 left))

No eerie in this context means "strangly scary"

Eerie = creepy. Sort of like "The man over there gave me an eerie look." or "I heard an eerie noise coming from the door."

Eerie = spooky.
Elated = very happy, overjoyed.
Havoc = chaos.

In context that would be:
1- For the past two days a spooky silence had prevailed in the grounds of the old hospital.
2- The guys were pouring with sweat inside their black kit, but overjoyed that things had gone well.
3- Preparations for the Gulf were causing chaos with the annual rugby knockout competition between six squadron teams.

Code:

define: word

Are you at a special school? Is your teacher a coke addict or something? That is by far the stupidest thing I have ever heard. So she wants you to make up your own definition to words that are already defined?
