1. Cumbersome: Unwieldy (difficult to carry); inefficient
Example - "Lugging the overstuffed book bag up the treacherous mountain was very cumbersome."
2. Unprecedented: Never done/known before
Example - "If Hillary Clinton would've been elected as President, it would've been an unprecedented monument for women's rights, as having the first female President in the U.S."
3. Anachronism: Belonging to another period (especially something old fashioned)
Example - "The model home was impeccably modern, aside from the kettle stove which seemed to be an inelegant anachronism."
4. Negligible: Insignificant; so small that it's not worth consideration
Example - "The cashier at the grocery store fumbled helplessly trying to count the correct amount of change, but I was in a rush, and the money was negligible, so I bustled out of the store instead of waiting for her to finish the transaction."
5. Imbue: Inspire or influence by emotion; permeate (spread throughout)
Example - "As the pianist pounded on the keys with an air of rage, the audience imbued with feelings of pity and melancholy. Everyone knew his mother had passed away two days prior."
