Words with "SOME"

In the English language we have many words which start with the prefix “some”. Some of the words you may know and others may be new to you. Take a look at this short paragraph to see how some of the words are used in context:

While Chris walked through the forest he knew that somehow he had made the wrong decision. He had seen a map that showed the correct path through the forest somewhere before and so he knew which way to go. Suddenly he heard somebody making a sound in the distance. He felt chills run down his spine. Somehow, someone had been following him without him noticing he thought. Sometime later he crossed over a bridge, which was suspended over a fast moving river. The bridge felt somewhat unsturdy and he slipped. He began to run now as something told him he was in trouble. He saw the clearing of the forest and finally reached the end when he realized that his dog Snoopy was the one who had been following him all along. “Snoopy!”, he shouted,“Someday I’ll be able to leave the house without you always following me!” He laughed.
