Introduction

Developing vocabulary from both conversations and written texts is pivotal as it
helps you accumulate words and shape your ability to communicate effectively.
Knowledge of wide-ranging vocabulary enhances your ability to comprehend
complex concepts, express yourself clearly and excel academically across disciplines.
In this chapter, you will share your stories using given words, act out dialogues,
play a Pelmanism vocabulary game, deliver a speech and form new words from
it. You will also read a story and act out a courtroom drama. The competencies
developed will enable you to use English more confidently and successfully.

Think about

1. the situations in your daily life where you encountered oral
information that required you to understand and explain different
types of meanings.
2. the ways to enrich your vocabulary and use it to convey different
meanings.
3. the ways to improve your proficiency of using specialised vocabulary
to convey meanings in speech and writing.
