Description
Lessons on lexis will extensively improve your ability to understand and use words and phrases in written and spoken English. Lexis refers to the words or vocabulary and phrases of a language, how they are used, how they change forms in order to collocate or fit into sentences. Your ability to amass English words, understand and recognize them when they change forms or classes as well as use their various forms and classes in writing and speaking will assist you in confidently engaging in conversations or discussions and putting down your thoughts into written expressions in English. You will also be able to easily understand other speakers’ expressions, understand and enjoy English movies, news and other broadcast or electronic information clearly.
