subject: Find Out The Correct Way You Might Develop a University Vocab! [print this page] There are many reasons to try to learn more words...Perhaps you've found yourself in a writing position, or maybe you'd like to Wow a professor with your expansive knowledge. However, you need some sort of plan of attack, otherwise you'll find yourself just reading a dictionary in an effort to find interesting words, inevitably a fruitless endeavor, it's just TOO boring. But I suppose you're not here to learn about what you shouldn't do, you're probably right about ready to learn what I did to absorb more of the English language. First, start reading books! Reading is, for obvious reasons, a very easy and helpful way to learn a few extra words. Something that I do, which works really well to find good juicy words is to keep a journal as you read. This way you can easily look any words you find up later. Of course this will require that you read fairly advanced books. Another thing you can do is go to Dictionary.com and subscribe to their newsletter to start receiving their word of the day. Seriously, if this is all you do then that 1 extra piece of knowledge a day will really start to add up. And plus, when it comes to words it's pretty hard to beat a Dictionary website. Here's my final tip for you - Use the words that you learn! This is the only way to truly retain any information that you may learn. With the Word of the Day newsletter for example, you might try and use the daily word at least 3 times through out the day. Obviously, this way you're going to be pretty much guaranteed to learn at least 365 words/year. Not bad at all I don't think. Try practicing a few of these tips and you'll see just how nice it is to have a big vocabulary.
