My best friend, Amira has been captain of our school's basketball team for over two years. The
team practices every day, and they are all such motivated and enthusiastic people. I enjoy
going to her games, but her very long detailed descriptions of her "important role in winning
can become insufferable. When that happens, I try to steer her toward describing her
teammates' contributions as well as her own.
The prefix in- means 'not." The Latin root suffere means "to bear or carry. Based on this
information, what does insufferable mean in the paragraph?
tending to be tedious
very often repeated
unable to be endured
unwilling to agree
