Job: Definitions of unknown words, Author: Patricia Reilly Giff, Pages: 166

This week my job was to find new words that i never have heard of before and the ones which i don't know the definition of. The two which were the most unusual words for me were mandered and iridescent. Below are 5 words which were unknown for me.

Mandered: Follow a winding corse of a river or road.

Iridescent: Showing lminous colors that seem to change and which are seen from different angles.

Stubby: Short and thick.

Muskrat: A large North American rodent with a musky smell valued for its fur.

Streaking: Long thin lines of a different color from from their surroundings.
