277. Vocabulary Expansion

Sarah: Hey Tom, do you ever feel like you need to expand your vocabulary?


Tom: Yeah, definitely! Sometimes I feel like I'm using the same words over and over again.


Sarah: I totally get that. I've been trying out some strategies to expand mine. Have you ever tried reading extensively?


Tom: Not really, I usually just stick to the same types of books.


Sarah: You should give it a try! Reading different genres exposes you to a variety of words and phrases.


Tom: That sounds like a good idea. What else do you do?


Sarah: I also use flashcards and vocabulary apps. They're great for memorizing new words and their meanings.


Tom: Flashcards, huh? I used to use those in school, but I never thought about using them for vocabulary.


Sarah: They're really helpful, especially when you're on the go. And another thing I've found useful is word association techniques.


Tom: Word association? How does that work?


Sarah: It's when you connect a new word with something you already know. For example, if you're learning the word "eloquent," you could associate it with someone you know who speaks really well.


Tom: That makes sense! I'll have to give these strategies a try. Thanks for the tips, Sarah!


Sarah: No problem, Tom! Let me know how it goes.
