    Utopia: this is the definition of utopia (you will write the actual definition) :-)
    Now here is my sentence using the word utopia (again, you will write an actual sentence).

    Dystopia: this is my definition of dystopia.
    Here is my sentence using the word dystopia.

    Here is my explanation of the word that is more transcendentalist. In addition to stating which word (utopia or dystopia) is more transcendental, I will explain why it is more transcendental.

    Here is my explanation of the word that is more Gothic. In addition to stating which word (utopia or dystopia) is more Gothic, I will explain why it is more Gothic.
