Vocabulary acts as the foundation of language. Students can understand the importance of vocabulary by knowing that it is the basis of language. Vocabulary helps to develop reading comprehension. Vocabulary is of utmost importance in a student’s life as one cannot grasp the complete meaning of the texts without knowing the meaning of the words used in them. When students have a large vocabulary, it helps them with all the major language skills- reading, writing, speaking and listening. With a rich vocabulary, students can perform these skills efficiently.
Why Learning New Words is Important?
Learning new words helps students to understand heavy texts in the later years. When students understand what they read, they begin to enjoy the process of reading and thus learning. Students will find it much easier to write creatively when they know a lot of words. They’ll be able to choose from a wide variety of words. Emphasising the importance of words, author Patrick Rothfuss once said, ‘’As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts.’’
