A good vocabulary will help you understand other people’s points of view, speak clearly and concisely, and make your writing more attractive to the reader.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThere are many different methods for improving your vocabulary, but I’ve found a simple seven-step system to be the most effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSTEP 1: Read Books & Watch Videos<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis should always be the first step for any writer. If you’re not reading books or watching videos, then you’re doing it wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\nI recommend reading fiction, non-fiction, and educational material. I’m a huge fan of reading classic literature. My favorite genres are science fiction, fantasy, and historical fiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe best video content I’ve found is TED talks and lectures from the likes of Stephen Hawking, Bill Gates, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSTEP 2: Use a Thesaurus<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe next step is to use a thesaurus to make sure your words are correct. Don’t be afraid to add or remove words to make your sentences more concise and easier to read.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSTEP 3: Practice Writing with Vocabulary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nWhen you write, think about how you would describe something in different ways. For example, if you’re writing about a person, imagine how you might describe them in terms of their physical appearance, personality, and interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIf you’re writing an article about a place, think about how you’d describe the location in terms of the weather, the people who live there, and the culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSTEP 4: Write & Read What You’ve Written<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nWriting and reading what you’ve written will help you become more aware of your own vocabulary. It’s also a great way to catch spelling and grammar errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSTEP 5: Find Synonyms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nSynonyms are words that have similar meanings. You can find synonyms by using a thesaurus or by looking at the words that other people use when describing a particular subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor example, if you’re writing about someone who has an interest in politics, you might want to look up the words “politician” and “activist” to find related words.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSTEP 6: Review Your Writing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe last step is to review your work. When you write, you should always be making sure your words are clear and concise. If you’ve written something that isn’t clear or doesn’t make sense, take a few minutes to rewrite it until you’re happy with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSTEP 7: Practice!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIf you’ve followed all of the steps above, you’ve done something right. Now it’s time to practice!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The most powerful tool you can have in your writing arsenal is a strong vocabulary.
