Wild?

I'M COMMENTING IN RED

wild - adjective, -er, -est, adverb, noun

–adjective

1.

living in a state of nature; not tamed or domesticated: a wild animal; wild geese. This is the first thing i thought of when i think of the word wild. Wild animals. "Untamed" is the perfect word to describe a wild animal, or human. Humans who don't have respect for themselves or anyone around them, i consider, are wild. When they just do whatever they want and still don't have control over their lives, are wild. "A man without ethics is a wild beast loosed upon this world" - Albert Camus.

2.	growing or produced without cultivation or the care of humans, as plants, flowers, fruit, or honey: wild cherries. Wild plants are very cool. They have their own uniqueness about them. It's so weird how they grow without our care.

3.

uncultivated, uninhabited, or waste: wild country. This one is a little hard to write about since i don't know off the top of my head the countries that are uninhabited or a waste. The only example i can give is an island thath hasn't been touched. Which reminds me of The Lord of the Flies, the island they got stranded on was uninhabited. But it was not a waste so I'm all confused about this one. Moving on.

4.

uncivilized or barbarous: wild tribes. I don't have an example of a wild tribe, but i can picture them in my head. A bunch of savages who don't really function as a whole. They don't have rules or structure, or organization. They end up killing each other, the tribe doesn't last very long. This is just what i think it is.

5.

of unrestrained violence, fury, intensity, etc.; violent; furious: wild strife; wild storms. Perfect example would be Katrina. We didn't know exactly how bad it was going to be until it wiped out New Orleans. We had no control over this storm. Protection wasn't thought out many people died and lots of homes got destroyed. It's "fury" and "intensity" ruined many peoples lives.

6.

characterized by or indicating violent feelings or excitement, as actions or a person's appearance: wild cries; a wild look. This makes me think of the saying, "a wild look in their eye", it's only used when someone is being described as mad or excited. They're feelings are uncontrolled and corrupt.

7.	frantic or distracted; crazy: to drive someone wild. "You drive me crazy", When someone annoys another they get flustered or "crazy".

8.	violently or uncontrollably affected: wild with rage; wild with pain. Or wildly in love or wildly depressed. There's so many things you can be wild for. Things that you feel so passionately for, that you can't control. Things like love, hate, jealousy, regret, sadness etc.

9.	undisciplined, unruly, or lawless: a gang of wild boys. Greasers. My Grandpa was a greaser. He told me stories of when he was young, he used to race cars illegally on the streets, breaking the law. Much like the greasers in the movie Grease. They are a unruly and undisciplined gang of boys.

10.	unrestrained, untrammeled, or unbridled: wild enthusiasm. Hmmmmm, don't know. A person has much/a lot of enthusiasm?

11.	disregardful of moral restraints as to pleasurable indulgence: He repented his wild youth. Don't like this one.

12.

unrestrained by reason or prudence: wild schemes. If you've ever seen the movie Catch Me If You Can it's a perfect example for this one. Leonardo DiCaprio's character, a con man, makes fake checks and gets rich off it. He fools everyone until the government catches onto his scheme, and he gets into a lot of trouble

13.	amazing or incredible: Isn't that wild about Bill getting booted out of the club? A good story to tell your friends.

14.	disorderly or disheveled: wild hair. Oh i have my wild hair days so i completely understand this one. The 80's also had some pretty wild hair.

15.	wide of the mark: He scored on a wild throw. Sports. No thank you.

16.	Informal. intensely eager or enthusiastic: wild to get started; wild about the new styles. Anxious, impatient, antsy. I remember waiting to get my license this was exactly how i felt.

17.	Cards. (of a card) having its value decided by the wishes of the players. In the card game, Uno, there's a card that's called the "wild" card. You can use it for any purpose. Basically making up your own rule.

18.	Metallurgy. (of molten metal) generating large amounts of gas during cooling, so as to cause violent bubbling. What?

–adverb

19.	in a wild manner; wildly. People do many things in a wild manner, like driving wildly, talking wildy excessive, being wildly emotional. When your doing something in a wildly manner, it's in extremes.
