Many of us may have conveniently ignored the spelling test exam back at school; however, as we grow, we happen to realize the importance and the need of being well acquainted with words. Whether you wish to improve your vocabulary for a college entrance exam or to secure a better position in your future career, you are at the right place!

This article is an informative piece on how to tackle the learning process of acquiring a stronger vocabulary the right way...

The three point vocabulary constructor:

1. Source search: The first step in the right direction is that you need to get proactive and look for a source that could teach you at least five new words a day. You could use a dictionary, an online English tutor, or find an interactive blog to meet more people who have the thirst to learn and strengthen their spoken English vocabulary as well. Look for bonus sources that along with the meaning of the word; also provide you with the right set of example teaching you how to use the word in sentences as well.

2. Build your own dictionary: Nothing works better than writing it down. Maintain a notepad full of the words you've been learning, along with its meaning in simple text. You need to build an association with the words and do some groundwork on the same. Read about the words, look for synonyms and make it a point to familiarize yourself with these words by maintaining a written record in your very own little dictionary.

Example:

Obscure

Meaning- Difficult to see, vague

Synonym- Confuse, Blot out

Usage- That rainy night brought with it an obscure vision that made it difficult to drive.

This is just one such example of a word that you probably didn't really know. You can catch hold of a host of difficult words to help you understand and adapt them into your day-to-day life. Also, one of the  fastest and most efficient form of gaining a good vocabulary would be enrolling in an online English program to help develop a more proficient vocabulary than the usual self-study.

3. Construct sentences: The words you've learned need to be framed in your head. And how will that happen? Well, the only way of grasping those words completely is by using them in your very own sentences. Make sure the sentences you construct are not amateurish and unskilled. The English language has a lot to explore and the learning process should help you connect to it and enhance your English communication skills to an elated level altogether. You could also take your lessons a few notches higher by complicating it. Pick five new learned words and try framing a paragraph that makes complete sense around it. A fact is that if you've done your homework well, you'll be surprised at what you've come up with.

Reading, learning, registering and practicing are the four-step process that will help you incredibly in your vocabulary journey henceforth. Keep aside all your inhibitions and gain a strong foundation in both your written as well as spoken English. The above-mentioned activity should take you only 15 minutes per word.
