Welcome back, everyone!

It's day two of our TOEIC Practice Vocabulary lessons. Today we are looking at the word WITHSTAND.

Definition: To be strong enough as to not be changed by something.

NOTE: The past participle is WITHSTOOD.

Example 1: This tree has withstood two hurricanes and it is still growing strong. 

Example 2: This building can withstand earthquakes. 

Example 3: I'm not sure if I can withstand another day like yesterday. We worked for 14 hours!

That's all for today. Thank you for reading! We will see you tomorrow. Take care!
