Why Improving Your Vocabulary Can Enhance Your Life

Why Improving Your Vocabulary Can Enhance Your Life

There are a number of reasons why you will want to improve your vocabulary. You will feel good about yourself, because you will have a larger command of your language. It has also been shown that improving your vocabulary can greatly increase your IQ. In addition to this, there are many practical benefits you can gain by improving your vocabulary.

Perhaps the best benefit is being able to communicate your ideas to people in a much more effective manner. While most of us are aware of the fact that others will judge us based on our outward appearance, it should also be noted that people will judge you by the way you speak.

Speaking with a poor vocabulary can cause people to look down on you. Vocabulary is an element that people will use to judge your intelligence. When you speak to someone, and you properly use words that are not spoken daily by the average person, you will convey the impression that you are a person that is educated and well read. You will also show that you are great at carrying on a conversation. However, it must be emphasized that having a good vocabulary involves more than just being able to use fancy words when you speak. Vocabulary is crucial because it is directly related to language.

The Importance of Language, and How It Relates to Vocabulary

Our language is the words and phrases we use to communicate with each other. Each language in the world may have tens of thousands of words, if not hundreds of thousands. The more words that you know out of your language, the more eloquently you will be able to communicate your ideas to people. By being able to effectively communicate your ideas to people, you can open up a number of doors, especially when it comes to your career. There are a number of ways that you can improve your vocabulary. From the time you start going to school until you graduate, you will be required to take classes that improve your vocabulary.

Most of these classes will teach you the basics. They will show you word structure, the proper way to read, and the proper way to write. While this is important, it is only the beginning. The path to improving your vocabulary will require you to do more. Many people graduate from high school thinking that they have learned all they need to know. This is not correct. You can never learn everything that exists in this world, and learning is a lifelong experience. Whether you are graduating from high school or from college, it should be your goal to continue improving your vocabulary.

How Reading is a Simple Way to Improve Your Vocabulary

One of the best and most simple ways to improve your vocabulary is to read. While this may sound like common sense, it is not. Many people don’t read as much as they should, and when they do, it is something that doesn’t improve their vocabulary. Reading a tabloid or a fashion magazine will do little to improve your vocabulary. There are a number of reasons for this. First, more often than not, many of the companies who own these publications do not have a vested interest in helping their readers improve their vocabulary. Instead, they are more interested in spreading gossip, or selling products.

If you don’t believe this, all you have to do is pick up the tabloids and read them the next time you’re out shopping. What you will find is that the information is written at a basic level. No attempts are made to challenge the reader. You will not improve your vocabulary by reading these manuscripts. When I say read, I’m referring to books that are actually challenging, books that use words and concepts that are not found in your everyday language. These are the types of books that will improve your vocabulary.

Conclusion

If you want to improve your vocabulary, try reading a book on philosophy, or a book on classical literature. These are the types of books that will allow your vocabulary to increase. In addition to this, you will also learn more about the world in which you live. Increasing your vocabulary will allow you to become smarter, and it will also allow you to become better informed.
