Why Study Vocabulary?

Words are the tools we use to think and communicate.

An expanded vocabulary helps to:

Learn more easily
Think more clearly
Express more effectively

Words help an artist describe the right shade of blue. They help a student understand the textbook, and help a leader formulate and share a vision.

In addition, your vocabulary makes an early impression. People judge you by the words you use and understand.

It's no surprise that an extensive vocabulary is highly correlated with academic and professional success. Happily, by reading and being aware of words while reading, vocabulary is easily increased.
