Good Ways To Increase Your Vocabulary

Manifest What you Want, Whenever you Want....

Your ability to communicate - and therefore, the way people perceive you - is largely influenced by the breadth of your vocabulary. While a large vocabulary inspires confidence, a poor grasp of words can lead someone to feel that you are less competent than you probably are. Of course, there is a time and place to use your increased vocabulary, but before you can put this knowledge into action, you must first increase your knowledge of words. You might have thought that learning new words is difficult, or you might have said you don't even know where to begin; these tips can help you know where to get started learning words easily!

Word of the day: There are plenty of programs online and probably even on your phone that will give you a 'word of the day'; this will typically be a word and a definition that they have chosen as the word for all users to learn that day. The best way to learn this new word is to give yourself a goal of using it a certain number of times that day! The word becomes more and more a part of you every single time you use it.

Flash cards: Many people learn exceptionally well when they use flash cards to study; when you use flash cards, do not try to 'memorize,' but instead just go through them. When you read through your pile of flash cards, take the time to try to give the definition before you look at it. The more you do this, the more you will find that the definitions are coming back without any effort at all!

Audio learning: If you want to learn words in a simple and easy manner while driving or even working out, find an audio program that teaches new words. With such programs, you do not even need to make a conscious effort to learn so much as you need to simply remember to use them. You will hear the words more and more as you use the program more and more, and these words will start rattling around inside your head.

If you make a small effort and take just a bit of time to learn new words each day, you will be able to communicate more effectively, and you will inspire more confidence in the people you meet!
