Exposing yourself to new words through reading is a great way to improve your vocabulary and to understand the context in which different words are used.  \n􀂙 If someone uses a word that you are not familiar with, ask the person,“What does that word mean?” or write the word down and look up the definition later.  \n􀂙 Make flash cards, tables or web diagrams to help you remember the definitions of words.  \n􀂙 Create a word family chart with all possible word forms.  \n􀂙 Use an online or paper dictionary in English. When learning a new word, check the spelling, part of speech, pronunciation, definition, synonyms, and antonyms of that word.  \n􀂙 Refer to vocabulary resources available in the OC library. The librarians can help you find these materials –just ask!  \n􀂙 Refer to online vocabulary resources, such as the Academic Word List or the Oxford 3000 (lists of the most useful academic vocabulary):  \n[http://www.victoria.ac.nz/lals/resources/academicwordlist/](http://www.victoria.ac.nz/lals/resources/academicwordlist/)  \n[http://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/us/wordlist/american_english/ox](http://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/us/wordlist/american_english/ox)[ford3000/](ford3000/)  \n􀂙 Review and use the new words as much as possible!","cbCaid0UqpuAjNTD","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaid0UqpuAjNTD","pdf",89737,"English","# Strategies for Vocabulary Acquisition\n## Recommended Resources and Tools","[{\"question\":\"What is the most recommended way to improve vocabulary?\",\"answer\":\"The guide suggests reading extensively to expose yourself to new words and to understand the context in which they are used.\"},{\"question\":\"How can I effectively remember the definitions of new words?\",\"answer\":\"You can create flashcards, tables, or web diagrams, as well as build word family charts to explore different forms of the words.\"},{\"question\":\"What information should I look for when checking a new word in a dictionary?\",\"answer\":\"When learning a new word, you should check its spelling, part of speech, pronunciation, definition, synonyms, and antonyms.\"}]","Language Skills - Improving Your Vocabulary | PDF",1790617820]
