Word Watcher Chapter 9

1. unprecedented (page 113): adjective. without previous instance; never before known or experienced; unexampled or unparalleled.

Such lateness was unprecedented in the history of Buchenwald.

2. liquidation (page 114): noun. the process of realizing upon assets and of discharging liabilities in concluding the affairs of a business, estate, etc.

The Lagerkommandant announced that the Buchenwald camp would be liquidated.

3. liberation (page 115): noun. the act of liberating or the state of being liberated.

This chapter, there weren't many vocabulary words at all! Sorry! If there is any other words that I didn't cover, feel free to comment my post.

Three days after the liberation of Buchenwald, I became very ill: some form of poisoning.
