MLA Style Papers Due

You turn in your papers.



We look at some words in the OED: "punk" and "sinister."



You spend time on the OED site and record word information in your daybook about at least 3 words.



Answer these questions:



What definition of this word are you most familiar with?



What other definitions did you find?



What is the origin of the word (other language or within English)?



What is the oldest use of this word in written English?



Copy out one of the quotes of the usage you find interesting.
