A little about me..

Books are my first love, followed by music , movies and travelling. Also like to dabble in cooking and kid's activities. I am here to share what amuses me...

Improve your Vocabulary

Memorizing lists if words to build your vocabulary is both tedious and unrewarding. Author Ida Ehrlich developed a method of vocabulary building based on the keys of the English language.
In her book Instant Vocabulary, she discusses 259 keys with a list of corresponding words and practice exercises.
By the time you finish reading and working with this book, you will be able to know the meaning of the longest word in the English language, Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, even if you have never seen/heard it before. I have to wait a few more days to get its meaning since I'm half way through the book.
