Definition

meaningful: significant, important adjective

Examples

  • "As I begin this new chapter in my life, substituting meaningless sexual encounters with meaningful brush strokes, I would appreciate the support of my colleagues as I reveal the fruits of my labor."
  • "Maybe we should be doing something more meaningful with our lives...like helping people."
Exercise 1
"I am sure you are already familiar with our extensive line of skin care and beauty products."

Philip writes that the reader must already know about Delavigne's collection of products.
"I am sure you are already familiar with our extensive line of skin care and beauty products."

Philip writes that the reader must already know about Delavigne's considerable collection of products.
considerable: Philip writes about Delavigne's "extensive line of products". "Considerable" shares a similar meaning with "extensive". Philip is expressing that Delavigne has "many different" products of "many different" types.
famous: "Famous" is not synonymous with "extensive". Philip never expresses that Delavigne products are "famous" or "well-known".
affordable: Although later on in his letter Philip writes that Delavigne products are "affordable", this is not what he expresses in the first paragraph. An "affordable" product is reasonably priced, or accessible to many people.
meaningful: "Meaningful" is not synonymous with "extensive". Something "meaningful" is significant or important.
