Grow Your Vocabulary:: By Learning the Roots of English Words

by Robert Schleifer


This book combines a practical vocabulary-building program with a study of word origins.

The reader is shown how to dissect an English word into its parts, analyze and define each part according to universal principles, reassemble the parts into the historical sense of the word, and then derive the modern definition.

The reader will learn how a few hundred roots give rise to thousands of words.
