Increase Your Vocabulary Skills with Greater Efficiency

The best way to improve vocabulary is to become familiar with commonly recurring roots, prefixes, and suffixes, and with the processes of semantic changes, rather than to try to memorize each new word separately. Also, words that should be learned are more useful when they are being grouped by thematic units than if they are arranged into alphabetical order with no related grouping.

For most students, there is a serious and almost insurmountable barrier to studying other languages merely to increase English voca- bulary. We do not have enough time to learn the grammar, spelling, syntax, and vocabulary of French, Latin, and Greek merely to become acquainted with words from those languages that have been assimilated into English. Although studying those languages can be invaluable to a serious student of English, most people want a shorter, more direct method of increasing vocabulary.

In fact, knowing Latin and Greek roots, prefixes, and suffixes; provides a far greater knowledge of English vocabulary than the memorization of lists of unrelated words.
