Wordlist for me (v)

vacuous (adj): empty of content; lacking in ideas or intelligence
Vacuous and vacant both refer to emptiness, but not the same kind of emptiness. Vacant is generally used to mean literally empty; an apartment with no tenant is vacant, not vacuous. Similarly, a dull person's thoughts can be vacuous, even though his skull is not literally vacant. However a vacant expression and a vacuous expression are the same thing.

vanquish (v): to conquer; to overpower

variegated (adj): diversified; having great variety
