How to improve your Vocabulary for Competitive exam


Vocabulary that you learn or get by hart – Essential element of a language, how to learn.


In English there are more than twenty thousand usable Word, phrase and idioms, Group verb, appropriate prepositions, Terminology, Foreign word and same other. We have to cover this section first!!! Is it possible to learn twenty thousand Word? Of course not but we can learn a little. I hope you know more than two thousand. That's enough but we need a little more. How you can learn those?

Firstly we have no scope of practice so we need to get by heart at first. Yes no other way for you. Don’t be afraid it's very easy. I make it successful in this following way.

1.    First week: Take an ordinary Grammar book form your collection, the book you have read previously, and go to the phrase and idioms section first.
Those are easy and quick understandable. You should think about your surrounding environment and make a relationship with meaning of idioms or make a short story for each phrase. Here most of words are well-known to you but the meaning of the phrase or idioms is unknown or phrase is known to you but the meaning of individual word is unknown to you. So never be afraid just start to get by hart. You should take only two or three days to complete this chapter. Here you need to learn about three hundred phrase and idioms. It’s not enough for you, after read once you have to read example sentence and try to get by hart. Only one weak is enough for this course. This section will help you to learn more than five hundred new word in a weak easily. Exercise: I think now you have strong idea about phrase and idioms. Share it with your friend as a sentence. You can update your facebook status daily with a new sentence applying phrase and idioms. It’s really interesting when your friend ask a question about the meaning of the sentence. Now you are an expert here.

Caution: Never try to fully get by hart all word! Just read them repeatedly and try to keep in mind (at list three hundred per day, keep your target big). you will meet them again and again in future. So you can be familiar with them several times lately.   

2.    Second week: In this week we are going to learn Group verb and appropriate prepositions that you couldn’t learn within your fourteen year education life. Actually you never try hard to learn those simple words. Group verb are very close to phrase and idioms as well as appropriate prepositions. So you can easily get by hart them. Those words are very simple but hard to keep in mind. Once learn them and regular practice will make you successful. First try with Group verb and then appropriate prepositions. You have to learn those to correct your English.

Caution: Divide your time into small section and utilize every section just like when you download a large file from internet it loaded 10KBs but at last the total file downloaded and you enjoy it. Learning is a similar process. Keep it in mind always.

3.    Terminology and Foreign word: Terminology is subject related but in our job exam very often this type of word are given. So we need to learn those. They are very few in number; you can complete them in a single day.

4.    Other word: this volume is so large and we never try to complete them, we will learn it naturally. You can regular practice from a vocabulary book in a limited aspect.
