 The leading reason why students really struggle with getting grade eights and grade nines in their creative writing stories, especially at GCSE level, is because they do not use ambitious enough words and ambitious enough vocabulary. So what I wanted to offer you guys were 10 words, 10 ambitious words that if you use them starting from today, you will see a massive shift in the grades that you get and of course your teachers will be super impressed. So let's start with the first word, which is florid. It means a red complexion. For example, his face grew florid as he tripped and fell. Word number two is baying, which means howling or barking loudly. For example, the baying hound petrified and terrified us all. Word number three is obsidian, which means extremely black. For example, her obsidian hair fluttered and whipped in the wind. Word number four is lurid, which means unpleasantly bright. For example, I detest my grandmother's lurid curtains. Word number five is phosphorescent, which means extremely bright or luminous. For example, the vast endless phosphorescent ocean. Word number six is auspicious, which means favorable. For example, winning the race was an extremely auspicious outcome for the runner, okay? Word number seven is palcritudinous, which means beautiful. For example, he admired the palcritudinous waitress in the restaurant. Word number eight is circuitous, which means longer than the direct route. For instance, the river Thames circuitously flows through London. Word number nine, so the ninth ambitious term is mollicinant, which is a very extremely pleasing sound to hear. For instance, mollicinant sounds wafted from the music hall. And finally, word number 10, ambitious vocabulary. Number 10 is umber, this is the color brown. For example, you could use pathetic fallacy to state an umber fog fell over the city. So that's really it when it comes to 10 ambitious words that you can use in your creative writing stories, starting from today in order to improve the quality of your writing and most importantly, start securing those grade eights and grade nines in your GCSE for creative writing. And the great thing is that we're at the start of the year, you have lots of time to memorize these words. So happy revision and of course, happy writing and see you guys in the next video.
