Explanation

Build vocabulary by: reading widely, learning word roots (Greek and Latin), using context clues, keeping a vocabulary journal, learning word families together.

Common roots: dict (speak), scrib/script (write), port (carry), duct (lead), spec (see). Knowing roots helps decode unfamiliar words.

Practice: use new words in sentences, review regularly, learn collocations (words that go together). Quality over quantity – understand deeply rather than memorize lists.
