1. ““Defendant’s assignment of error No. 7 is addressed to the failure of the court to define ‘corroborative’ evidence in its instructions to the jury at the time the testimony was admitted. Defendant cites no authority for his position, nor does the record indicate that he requested the court to define the term. Failure to define the term is not ground for exception. State v. Lee, 248 N.C. 327 , 103 S.E. 2d 295 . Defendant’s mere assertion that the jury probably did not know the meaning of the word is clearly insufficient to show prejudicial error.””
