Definition: The arrangement or placement of certain things.

Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look! That dictionary definition – "The arrangement or placement of certain things" – is a bit tricky, isn’t it? It’s not quite the whole story when we talk about ‘disposition.’ Let's think about it like this: “Disposition” really means a person’s general attitude or mood. It's how you feel inside, how you tend to be. Think of a little house – that’s the arrangement! But disposition is more like who lives in that house. Is it a happy house? A grumpy one? A calm and peaceful place? For example: "She has a cheerful disposition," means she's generally a happy person. Or, “He had a gloomy disposition after the news,” meaning he was feeling sad and down. It’s about your nature , your inherent way of being. Does that make a little more sense? Do you have any questions before we move on to our next word?
