The English language is a rich, useful collection of disparate sounds, misleading pronunciations and nightmarish spellings - you're not the problem - it's English! Suppose you want to look up the word, "myriad", you have no idea how to pronounce it. The dictionary says, "myr - i - ad" . What does that say? You're right! Absolutely nothing - you're stalled at square one. Try "EE zee" WORDS: myriad = "MEER ee aad" - you've got it! Quck and easy! Look at, "acquiesce" - how do you pronounce it? The dictionary says, "akwe es" - not helpful at all! Try "EE zee" WORDS: "aa kwee ESS" - so "EE zee"! The words in this dictionary are individually selected to increase, augment and clarify your verbal intelligence and facilitate your communication. Like it or not, you're judged by how well you can speak, how well you can communicate. Words sounding alike, yet very different, are paired for easy comparison and put in sentences. For example: "close", "close" "clothes": **close ("clothes", "close") *close (adjective) "KLOHSS" nearby, at hand ----------The City Hall is close to the library - only a block away. Other forms: I feel closed in - smothered, suffocated *clothes (noun) "KLOHZ" apparel, what you have on to wear ----------All her clothes are tailored for the best fit. *close (verb) "KLOHZ" to shut something, cover something up, seal ----------Please close the door - I feel a draft. Other forms: closed, shut, closing Also, words are labed, "positive" or "negative" to give you a "head's up" idea of the "flavor" of how to use the word.; such as: accost (verb, negative word) "ah KAWST" attack, confront ----------They were accosted by bandits while on vacation. Other forms: only used as "accosted" Build up your vocabulary, build up self confidence with "EE zee" WORDS! "The limits of my language means the limits of my world" Ludwig Wittgenstein
