I don't remember who, but someone posted a complaint that the word
"municipality" is not in the new Oxford Dictionary. I was surprised because
that IS a very useful word. Well, I checked and the word "municipal" is listed
there. While IMO "municipality" should have been there as well, "municiapl"
should be enough for most students to understand the meaning of "municipality"
- especially considering the fact that there is a list of suffixes at the end
of the dictionary, and we are supposed to teach our students about common noun
endings.
All the best,
Rivka
