Dear Students, The SSC CGL Tier-1 2017 Exam will start from 5th August to 24 August 2017. Sometimes in SSC CGL, vocab related questions are repeated, so you need to revise all the vocab notes at ssc adda and previous years vocab questions. Continue reading newspapers or novels. Your reading habit can make all the difference. If you are not able to read a newspaper for SSC Exam, here we are providing vocab words based on the Hindu newspaper editorial.
1.Divulge (verb)
Meaning: make known (private or sensitive information).
Synonyms: disclose, reveal, make known, tell, impart, communicate, pass on, publish, broadcast, proclaim, promulgate, declare.
Antonyms: conceal
Example: These notions of privacy are based on the need for security and protection. We do not want to divulge certain things about our wealth or life practices since they may be used by others to potentially harm us. So privacy becomes a way of protecting individuals or groups. But we also often overthrow privacy arguments for security purposes.
Meaning: in a way that continues for a long or apparently infinite time; permanently., on a yearly basis for several years.
Example: They use this notion to protect themselves from governments and the public. They also realise that the greatest market that is perennially available to them is the market of trading information on privacy.
3.Unveil (verb)

4.Reimburse (verb)

5.Escrow (noun)
Meaning: a bond, deed, or other document kept in the custody of a third party and taking effect only when a specified condition has been fulfilled., place in custody or trust until a specified condition has been fulfilled.

6.Convene (verb)
Meaning: come or bring together for a meeting or activity; assemble.
Synonyms: summon, call, call together, order.
Example: The G20 process was initiated with American leadership, when President George Bush convened the first gathering of the world’s 20 largest economies, following the outbreak of the global financial crisis of 2008.

Example: When Jajali met Tuladhara he observed that as Tuladhara went about his business of selling goods, different kinds of people came to the shop. Some customers were good, others were bad; some expressed gratitude while others ridiculed the merchant. But Tuladhara remained in perpetual equanimity, he was neither exulted by the love nor distressed by the hatred and went about doing his work honestly. While balancing the scales in his business, Tuladhara had achieved an inner balance that transcends duality.

Synonyms: empathy, rapport, sympathy, accord, harmony, like-mindedness.
Example: This strategy of playing on religious affinities, we fear, will push Bengal down the slippery slope of communalism. The last time this happened was between the late 1920s and 1940s. The Hindu elite of Bengal were not keen to let democracy produce Muslim-dominated governments in an undivided Bengal.
9.Stringent (adjective)
Meaning: (of regulations, requirements, or conditions) strict, precise, and exacting.
Synonyms: strict, firm, rigid, rigorous, severe, harsh, tough, tight, exacting, demanding, inflexible, stiff, hard and fast, uncompromising, draconian, extreme
Example: India has generally maintained that man-made carbon dioxide pollution is largely due to the years of pollution by the developed West. However, such an argument might weaken if aerosols were brought into the picture because this is a largely South Asian concern. Were carbon dioxide and aerosol interactions proven to be strongly linked, India could be under pressure to adopt more stringent climate-proofing policies.
10.Anomalous (adjective)
Meaning: deviating from what is standard, normal, or expected.
Synonyms: abnormal, atypical, non-typical, irregular, aberrant, exceptional, freak, freakish, odd, bizarre, peculiar, unusual, out of the ordinary, inconsistent, incongruous, deviant, deviating, divergent, eccentric;
Example: Persistent aerosol emissions might lead to more instances of moderate rainfall but could mean anomalous weather and health hazards over large parts of north India. The aerosol-greenhouse gas relationship in exacerbating climate change is an old area of research but teasing out the relative contribution of each is challenging and influences the costs countries must incur to address them.
