Minimum Day April 20th

 

W.O.W. #10 Sem.2 Bulletin

 

The root words for this week are ant and anti, which mean opposite. The following words are antagonist, antiseptic, antibiotic, antidote, and antithesis.

The antagonist is usually the antithesis of the protagonist, who is the main character. On the show Grey’s Anatomy, the doctors are the main characters who work in antiseptic surgery rooms. If a snake has bitten a patient, he may receive an antidote to counteract against the poison. Possibly they might give him an antibiotic if there are further problems or infections.
