Explanation of new words.
A key point of learning is finding new words. In every text we learn or analyze we have to point out some words which we have not heard before or do not know how to translate.Some ways to explain new words:
1-Read , read and read The more you read -- especially novels, but also magazines and newspapers -- the more words you'll learn. As you read and uncover new words, try to work out the meaning from the sentence as well as from looking up the definition in a dictionary. Write down new words. Your vocabulary will sky rocket!
2-Build your own dictionay It's a very good idea to write down the new words you discover. Just by writing them down you will start to recognise the words when you read. Plus, keeping a dictionary of all your new words will give you the confidence to learn even more words -- especially when you can see how many new words you've already learnt.
3-Learn a word a day Using a word a day calendar, a website, or develop your own list of words to learn. This is a great technique many people use to learn new words. Don't feel you must learn a new word every day.
4-Play some games Word games that challenge you and help you discover new meanings and new words are a great tool for expanding your vocabulary. Examples include crossword puzzles, anagrams, word jumble, Scrabble, and Boggle.
