first the words of today

collation: a light meal
commiserate: feel or express sympathy for
consanguinity: kinship
continence: self restraint; sexual chastity
penitent: repentant
contrite: penintent
contentious: quarrelsome
construe: explain; interpret (thought I knew that one... oops)


I get these words from doing practice questions in my GRE book, needless to say I got a lot wrong today.
