Chapter 4: Using Word Parts and Learning New Words

There are many words out there in books, newspapers, articles, journals, and etc. that many of us may not know about. This chapter helped me strategize new ways in finding the meaning of a word by knowing three different parts which are prefixes, roots, and suffixes. I learned that by using these three parts of identifying the word and using the context of the sentence will help understand what the word means. Another way in learning new words is by building a vocabulary list and use them in your daily use of speech and writing. Knowing this now will help me along the way in my reading and would become a very useful source.
