mausoleum

a grand above-ground structure used for entombing the deceased or as a memorial

What is a "mausoleum"?

A mausoleum is a large, usually elaborate building or structure that is used to house the tombs of one or more deceased individuals. It is often made of stone or marble and can be found in cemeteries or on private estates. Mausoleums are designed to provide a place of rest and honor for the deceased, with the tombs often placed in chambers or rooms within the structure. Some mausoleums are simple, while others are grand and decorative, featuring sculptures, stained glass, or inscriptions. They serve as memorials for families, offering a lasting tribute to those who have passed.

malárie

a potentially fatal disease normally transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito

What is "malaria"?

Malaria is a serious and often life-threatening disease caused by parasites spread to humans through the bite of infected Anopheles mosquitoes. Symptoms typically include fever, chills, sweats, headache, muscle aches, and fatigue. In serious cases, malaria can lead to complications such as organ failure and death. The disease is most common in tropical and subtropical regions, where the Anopheles mosquito thrives. Prevention measures include using insect repellent, sleeping under bed nets, and taking antimalarial medication when traveling to regions with a lot of malaria. Early diagnosis and quick treatment with antimalarial medications are crucial for effective management of the disease.

onomatopoeie

a word that mimics the sound it represents

What is "onomatopoeia"?

Onomatopoeia is a literary device where a word imitates or suggests the sound it describes. It creates a vivid auditory effect by using words that sound like the noises they represent. For example, words like "buzz," "clang," and "sizzle" mimic the sounds associated with them. Onomatopoeia adds a sensory dimension to writing, making descriptions more engaging and realistic by allowing readers to "hear" the sounds in their imagination.
