+389 You know what a lot of words mean, it's just really hard to explain it, amirite?

"If", "what", "when", etc.

For me that mostly happens with words that I heard or read somewhere and inferred their meaning from the context, but that never showed up on a vocabulary list and that no one ever specifically taught me. I know exactly how to use them, I just can't define them because I was never taught the definition.

In second grade I told my friend I knew what a word met but couldn't define it. She said that meant I didn't really know. It still sort of bothers me.
