support

We are wrapping up project 3 (finally) and moving on to the next.  For this project we're representing a word and it's meaning.  I've chosen the word support.

According to the American Heritage dictionary, it's defined as:

TRANSITIVE VERB:
sup·port·ed, sup·port·ing, sup·ports

1. To bear the weight of, especially from below.
2. To hold in position so as to keep from falling, sinking, or slipping.
3. To be capable of bearing; withstand: "His flaw'd heart . . . too weak the conflict to support" (Shakespeare).
4. To keep from weakening or failing; strengthen: The letter supported him in his grief.

 Now I'm off to finish up my hairdryer project and study for a journalism test!
