Give your Vocabulary a Boost with TED Talks and News Articles

Suja

TED Talks and news articles are fantastic tools for building vocabulary. Here’s how to makethe most of them:

1. Choose Topics That Interest You

Pick subjects you enjoy, like technology, culture, or business. TED Talks and news articles cover a wide range, so you’re bound to find something engaging.

2. Listen, Read, Repeat

Use subtitles on TED Talks, or find audio versions of articles. Read along, note new words, and repeat sentences aloud to reinforce meaning and pronunciation.

3. Focus on Context

Observe how words are used within the talk or article. For example, terms like “scalability” or “disruption” often appear in innovation topics. Context helps you understand these words better.

4. Keep a Vocabulary Journal

Write down new words, their meanings, and example sentences. Review this journal regularly to strengthen retention.

5. Use New Words in Your Conversations

Practice using newly learned words in sentences related to your life. This active use helps lock them into memory.

Using these simple steps, TED Talks and news articles can become powerful tools to expand your English vocabulary.
