DO NOW: #3 Copy the following
information
1. The ego
• Egoist and egotist are built on
the same Latin stem – the
pronoun ego, meaning I. I is the
greatest concern in the egoist’s
mind and overused in the
egotist’s vocabulary.
• An egocentric person considers
himself center of the universe.
• An egomaniac is obsessed with
his own needs and interests.
• Hitler and Mussolini were
egomaniacal.
2. others
• In Latin the word for other is alter.
Altruism, the philosophy practiced
by altruists, comes from a variant
spelling of alter.
• Altruistic actions benefit others.
• An alteration is a change.
• When you have an altercation
with someone, you have a violent
disagreement, stronger than a
dispute or quarrel.
• How does this help you understand
the word alter ego?

DO NOW #5: Copy the following
information
• Depends on how you turn
• Introvert, extrovert, and ambivert are based on the Latin verb, verto,
to turn.
• If your thoughts are constantly turned inward (intro), you are an
introvert; outward (extro), extrovert; both directions (ambi), ambivert.
• Dexterous means skillful; dexterity means skill. Dexter is the Latin word
for right hand. If you are an ambidextrous person, you are skilled with
both hands (literally both hands are right). The French word for right is
adroit. In English if you say a person displays adroitness, it means they
are intelligent.
• The Latin word for left hand is sinister. In English this means evil or
dangerous. The French word for the left hand is gauche. In English if
you describe a person as a gaucherie, it means they are awkward
and clumsy.
