Well, do you know what encyclopedic means?

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

E.?

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

No.. How is that the opposite of encyclopedic? The opposite would be not knowing anything.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Idk .. B.?

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

Stop guessing, look at the definition of each word.. Which one means 'not knowing' ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

You do not have a dictionary? There is also online dictionaries..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it would have to be D.

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

No. Ignorant means not knowing.

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wrong!!!! Plus I do know what it is!!

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

If you knew what it meant then you would know the answer..

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

No because if you knew what it is then you would know that the answer is C. But you keep saying the answer is something else so No you don't know what the word means.

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

Plus, if you knew what it meant, why would you post the question here?? It's perfectly fine to not know what a word means but insulting those who try to help you is not a wise thing to do..

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

So... Let's try this again. What do YOU think the answer is? Is it a. b. C. or d.?

OpenStudy (dani_rose):

This is hilarious lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's Z.

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

And by this "Z" do you mean C?

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

Don't choose C then. Not our problem if you get it wrong.

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

Look @KatelynSelena I'm tired of trying to tell you the answer. Put whatever you want. If you think it's Z put Z then although I have no idea where your gonna find that answer choice but good luck anyways.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I GOT IT WRONG U WERE WRONG!!!!!!!

OpenStudy (dani_rose):

OH.MY.GAWD WHAT DID YOU EVEN PUT!?

OpenStudy (dani_rose):

CUZ IF YOU PUT Z THEN THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

No you were wrong. You put Z as an answer choice. I didn't tell you to put Z. You wanted to put it so as a result you got it wrong.

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

Did you put C? Because I know English and I took a test with a similar question that I got right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

prove it

OpenStudy (daniee_bruhh):

Same plus I know that you're lying if you put C and got it wrong because a few days ago I helped someone with this same test I think and they got it right.

OpenStudy (jasonnewstedrocks):

Alright, I'll prove it.

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Dani, stop that. :l Oh, and C. Why? Because encylopedia is used to give notations on a certain genre, like if you had questions on a biography of Martin Luther King Jr.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your proof did not show up

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

It also is a trusted source.

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Now, ignorant means what?

OpenStudy (dani_rose):

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

It means to lack knowledge and is uncivilized in some terms, however, in most, it is lacking knowledge. So yes, They are correct. Indeed they are, Kate.
