Vocabulary and Word Analysis

Expanding Your Word Power

Vocabulary refers to the words you understand and use. Word analysis helps you figure out the meaning of new or challenging words by looking at roots, prefixes, and suffixes.

Strategies to Learn New Words

  • Use context clues from surrounding words
  • Break down complex words into smaller parts
  • Keep a personal word journal to track new vocabulary

Why It Matters

A strong vocabulary helps you communicate clearly and understand more complex texts, both in school and in daily life.

Examples

  • Decoding the meaning of 'unpredictable' by breaking it into 'un-', 'predict', and '-able'.

  • Understanding the word 'biology' by recognizing 'bio-' means life and '-logy' means study.

In a Nutshell

Vocabulary and word analysis help you understand and use new words.
