Speak Elegantly By Improving Your Vocabulary With These Easy Tips!

[@gloriadestinyacademy1607]

Excellent Job Winnie, reading is a gateway to abundance. 1 read 15 BOOKS every year excluding my bible, articles, and other related career books. The power of reading can never be overemphasized.

I love reading but I always forget what I read after reading 😢 If anybody can help I don’t mind

[@gloriadestinyacademy1607]

whenever you read, always write down something you learn or circle something in the book. This will improve your retentive and retrieval memory. people remember 10% of what they hear - - 20% of what they read - - 80% of what they see. The more you write, the more you see and the more you remember. Also, don't be intimidated to read the same book again and again and again. Always choose motivational books as well

[@ChibuzorOsinachi]

Tip 1- Read wide, articles, blog posts, books, you find a strange word, take note of it and find out what it means and how can it be used in a sentence. Consume media with intent. Tip 2- look out for synonyms to those words, you can be happy, elated, or anger, livid, exasperated. I'm glad you found this helpful. It's my pleasure to share. Tip 3 - Idioms - figurative expressions that add color to your speech, don't take on much work (don't bite more than you can chew), punctuation, paragraph etc you can learn this when you read Have a dictionary and be conscious and aware of these things.

[@reallifewithnkese6758]

Purchasing a dictionary is number one on my 2024 to-do list…Thank you Winnie

[@adefowokeonasanya5408]

I am Journalist, yet I still make a lot of mistakes when speaking. Now, am studying Social service worker and it's really making me read more, plus wanting to improve on my vocabularies. I am on top of the world watching this.

[@agapemvovi]

I need to add this though. Listening to you guys helped me realize something that for a long time I was wondering. English is not my first language. I am learning it. I was born in DR Congo, and at school we spoke French (up until today); I have always loved words. From primary school through finishing high school my favorite classes were dictation, spelling, vocabulary, conjugation, reading, grammar, and even today years later I love words. However, when it was time to pick a major at university, I picked a topic related to finance because it hadn't clicked in my mind that words mattered. That I could make something with the fact that I was good at spelling, dictation or vocabulary and earn a living. I wondered if people in the real world cared if someone could spell right or wrong. I almost that being good with words was useless. And the truth is after I graduate from university, I almost lost my interest with words. But thanks to you guys, I can see how powerful words can be and what they can do for you when you know how to use them. If I could go back to the past, I would pick a different major, but that is impossible. What is possible, however, is I can get back to loving words again. I know better now. You have given me back the motivation to improve and to do something with this skill I have. I consider that I am pretty good with words, but I also know I have a lot to learn and practice. As a full time, stay-at-home mom, I have sometime a lot of free time, so I decided to write a Christian-based blog. It is 8 days old so far. I love writing and this is my way to practice and expand my vocabulary. Your video really cheered me up. To finish, maybe I didn't use appropriate words somewhere there, just know I am an English learner. Bye

[@winniesschoolofelegance]

This made me a little emotional… thanks so much for sharing. I am super glad you are not giving up on your love for words. You really don’t have to sit in the four walls of a school to be a master at it. You can be a self taught words master and impact lives with your knowledge from anywhere in the world. Just take advantage of the internet and gain & create as much knowledge as value as you can. I am rooting for you!❤️❤️❤️

[@M5ogba9567]

Wow!.... I've just been swept off my feet. This is a channel to be glued unto instead of wasting ones idle time on things less productive or profitable. Feeling sad that I'm just seeing this channel for the first time: actually stumbled unto this while searching for video clips on how to increase reading speed. Frankly, I learnt a lot within few minutes that I spent here especially the pronunciation of STIPEND. I couldn't help but jump off my bed with excitement. Your channel is quite educative and I wish more youths, especially our undergraduates, can access this. Before I got to the end of this first episode, I've started sharing the link with my wife and others. It's quite a channel - a unique one at that. Gosh! Where have i been?

[@M5ogba9567]

I didn't have to watch the episode to the end before liking, subscribing and sharing. I was ELATED 😂😊 or rather ecstatically overwhelmed.

[@bettyannblackford8926]

Hello. My name is Betty Ann and I have just stumbled on your video for the first time. I am a stickler for proper pronunciation, intonation and diction . Vocabulary does play a vital role in becoming socially viable and intellectual. As a teacher and a minister in church communicating constantly is relevant , therefore I am ready to forget the nonsense I know and sitting at your feet to learn.

[@bettyannblackford8926]

While watching movies I especially like reading captions so I learn to spell new words as well as the syllables in each word.

[@margaretrosemakoni7096]

Just come across your KZbin discussion. I grew up reading the dictionary. So I developed a wide vocabulary. I love reading different books including my Bible. Thank you and bless you.

[@nnenniaifepe5073]

I read 62 books in 2019, 57 in 2020, and curerntly i m reading my 9th book for the year. Responsibilities happened and i had to be more intentional about reading more books. I want to go back to my habit in 2019 when i read one book per week. Reading is fun and i m.addicted to it

[@ngozicharity3877]

Waw, please dear how do you achieve that number of books in a year, do you use hard or soft copies and please how do I choose books I will love to read .

[@antheaawhariefe]

Thank you so much for this video. Some months back a friend of mine jokingly told me that the English language doesn't fit me ( meaning I don't speak English fluently ) it struck me bcs it was so true. That was the beginning of my intentional resort to improving the way I speak. Another challenge is that am a mild stammerer, I don't also have a rich vocabulary but am currently working on it.

[@winniesschoolofelegance]

I am so glad you are taking the steps to improve your English speaking… I was also once like you and used to stammer a lot! But with the willingness to change and be better and constant practice, I became better at it. You can do it and I am rooting for you!❤️❤️

“You as an elegant person develops a rich vocabulary” The sentence is not grammatically correct. The subject "you" is singular, but the verb "develops" is in the third-person singular form, which is incorrect. The correct verb form for the subject "you" is "develop." We all learn everyday!☺️ I enjoy watching videos like this. Great job, Winnie!
