1. 1

    "Tenacious" describes someone (or something) that holds on firmly and refuses to give up, even when things are hard or other people would quit. A tenacious student keeps studying a hard topic until they truly understand it. A tenacious weed grows back again and again no matter how many times you pull it out. It's mostly a word of praise, showing real admiration for someone's determination and grip - both physical (holding on tightly) and mental (not giving up).
