Studying Vocabulary

Post by kertika »

According to my own experience, one of the best ways to increase your vocabulary is:

1. you have to read a lot
2. find and take note all the new vocabularies
3. look up the meaning in the dictionary
4. try to memorize and make sentences based on the new words you've found

Good luck!

Read the newspaper daily. Always there is a new word which helps to build vocabulary. Try to create a sentence using that word it helps to improve English speaking with new words. Also read books, novels.
At UPSC classes in Nagpur faculty always give the task to write a blog on a topic which helps students to write an essay in the exam with new words. And it's really helpful in the exam time and in vocabulary building.

Here are a few tips to improve your English vocabulary:

1. Read widely: Reading books, newspapers, and magazines in English will expose you to new words and phrases, and help you understand their context and usage.

2. Keep a vocabulary journal: Write down new words you encounter, their definition and how they're used in a sentence. Review them regularly.

3. Use flashcards: Create flashcards with new words, and quiz yourself on them to improve retention.

4. Watch English media: Watch TV shows, movies, and videos in English to immerse yourself in the language.

5. Use an online dictionary: When you come across an unknown word, use an online dictionary to get its meaning and usage.

6. Practice speaking: Try to practice speaking English as much as you can, either with a language exchange partner or a tutor.

7. Play word games: Crossword puzzles, word games, and quizzes can be fun and effective ways to improve your vocabulary.[/list]

Hi all,

There is an interesting post about Vagrant Vs Hobo.

Who is called a vagrant?
Let me now tell you more about Vagrants. A vagrant is a homeless individual who frequently moves around without a fixed address or a steady job. Addiction, mental illness, poverty, and other adversities may push vagrants into this lifestyle. When someone is called a “vagrant,” it can be taken negatively and used to describe someone who is thought to be careless or lazy.

Who is called a hobo?
A hobo is a homeless individual who moves around looking for employment or better living arrangements.

Hobos, as opposed to vagrants, are frequently willing to work and will perform seasonal or odd jobs in return for cash or food.

Hoboes have long been a part of American society and are frequently connected to the Great Depression, a time when severe poverty drove many people to live as vagrants or hobos.

The following are the main distinctions between vagrants and hobos:

Attitude toward work: Hobos are frequently willing to work and will perform odd jobs or seasonal labor in exchange for money or food, whereas vagrants are not always seeking work or chances.
Connotation: The term “vagrant” can have a negative meaning and is sometimes used to refer to someone who is seen as lazy or shiftless, whereas “hobo” has a more impartial or even positive meaning, associated with a history of travel and adventure.
Lifestyle: Vagrants do not always have a particular culture or way of life connected to their wandering, but hobbits frequently have a culture and way of life centered around living off the land and taking trains.
