COMMON WORD STORY 28 A SUPERMAN COMIC BOOK

This is a writing exercise using common words. I have collected a list of 17,000

words. From this I have chosen twenty words at random. The exercise is to write a story with
at least ten of them. I have included my story along with a translation into other words.

Here is the list:

  1. SATISFY
  2. BEHAVIOR
  3. INSECTAVOR
  4. SHRILL
  5. SUPERMAN
  6. HERITAGE
  7. HOPPER
  8. RUBELLA
  9. SEROLOGY
  10. SAVOIR FAIRE
  11. TABLEAU
  12. DEFUNCT
  13. SCRIPTURE
  14. PARATAXIS
  15. PATERNAL
  16. AGOG
  17. TEREPIDATION
  18. ENTITY
  19. MINT
  20. TUDOR

Here is my story:

A shrill auction was held for a mint Superman comic book.

The now defunct story was about an entity from another world
doing super-human behaviors.
He satisfied the definition of a super hero, leaving a
generation agog with a heritage of crime fighting, giving
bad guys trepidation.

Noisy bidding took place for a brand-new looking Superman

comic book. The now discontinued story was about a being from
another world, doing very strong deeds.
He filled the bill as a super hero, leaving a generation
in awe with a memory of crime fighting, giving fear to the
bad guys.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

Included with this story is a 17,000 word list of common

words. Well, not really common, just every word I thought should
be on a list of English words. I focused on word families to
cut down on the number of entries, so I listed government not
governmental, etc.
I have seen a few such common word lists; some were a joke, some
lacked depth and inclusiveness. My list is very personal to me, as
I included only words I have seen used myself. As I have dabbed in
a few fields of study, it is bigger without being tiresome.
This list is interesting in itself. Look at it and see if I missed
and important words.
