PREPARE AND BUILD YOUR WORD POWER The experienced and dedicated professors never recommend that you go on learning (or mugging ?) the words, without actually knowing their correct meaning & the context in which they are used. A student, with exceptional memory, might remember stock of words but again the important part of usagewould be missing. It is advisable to learn a few words on regular basis, get their correct usage remembered for ever, by writing letters/ paragraphs/ short essays/ Articles to news papers or whatever the way, the student thinks best. The aim is to understand the various applications of the particular word. The discussions in groups, family, friends, with correct use ofwords will give a boost to the word power. For example,Some of the students who participate in public speaking in schools/colleges or other platforms, incorporate the words they like indifferent contexts, they rehearse before the mirrors, if feel shy to rehearse before the friends and relatives and thus get the particular words stored for ever in their memory bank.
