Word Game

The goal of this word game is to help build your vocabulary. Test your stored knowledge and vocabulary skills before researching words online or in the dictionary.

Directions:

1. Type a word that begins with the letter E and ends with the letter E in the Leave a Reply/Leave a Comment section below.

2. Select any three unfamiliar words from the list we have provided below or any three unfamiliar words that participants have shared. Google the words to learn their definitions, then write three simple sentences for each of the new words you’ve learned.

3. If you select a word that you don’t know how to pronounce, Google the pronunciation. Click the megaphone icon on the Google search page to hear the pronunciation. You can also YouTube search the pronunciation.

4. Pay it forward by sharing your sentences in the Leave a Reply/Leave a Comment section below (keep scrolling down).

Let’s get started. I’ll start:

• explosive

• experience

• envelope

• estimate

• enhance

• emancipate

• electrocute

• ebullience

• elongate

• encourage

• entourage

• entice

• effervescence

• emasculate

• excoriate

• esperance

• exfoliate

There are over 700,000 words in the English language. It is virtually impossible to know the meaning of every word or even how to correctly pronounce them. Always remember, it is okay if you do not know the definition of a word the first time you hear it. But frequent practice will improve your comprehension and pronunciation.

Remember to relax while you are learning new words. Doing so will help make learning much easier. Plus, our staff is here to assist you in learning more.

Please share your answers in the Leave a Reply/Leave a Comment section below. A member of our teaching staff will provide helpful feedback on your syntax.
