Unpaired Words:

At www.quinion.com/words/articles/unpaired.htm read about "unpaired words"—in this case, negative words whose opposites either no longer exist or are rarely used. After reading the examples on the page, brainstorm as many other "unpaired" positive versions of common negative words as you can. After you have compiled a list of 15 to 20, consult a dictionary. How many of your "unpairings" are actual words? Report your findings to your instructor in a short e-mail.
