Do you find it particularly difficult to remember words?
Today, we choose a simple and familiar word - two, as a starting point to start our journey of efficient word memory.
It contains interesting word formation rules and various ways of changing words, which can help you easily memorize five new words.
We know that two means "two".
In the formation process of the word, the two letters wo immediately following two are transformed into vi, and then a final letter d is added to form the root word vid.
There is a pattern here.
There is a relationship between W and V. W is constructed from V, so the two can be replaced with each other.
It is very common for vowels to be interchanged, such as the vowel o becomes i.
Adding the final element d to the end of a word or root has the same effect as adding the final element t to the end, because the two letters t and d are interchangeable. For example, the root word vid seems to mean dividing a whole into two parts, which is used to express the meaning of "separation" when making words.
The rules of word formation will make memorization easier.
When learning words, if you can grasp these rules, you can conduct in-depth analysis of new words.
This is not simply a painful memory, but the ability to understand and remember it, which will be of great benefit to subsequent learning.
Divide is composed of di, vid and the letter e, and its meanings include "divide", "split", "split" and "separate".
As a prefix, di means "separate", while vid is the root word we deduced before that means "separate", and the e at the end is the writing habit in English.
It is the concept of dividing a whole into two parts.
We can use this vocabulary in daily life, such as in the scene of cutting a cake. Cutting a complete cake into several pieces can be expressed as "dividing the cake".
Sometimes words not only represent a concept, but also reflect an action.
The word "divide" is very useful when describing the distinction between different things.
In mathematics, we also use this function when dividing a number.
divis - actually a variation of the word divide.
At this time, a word formation pattern occurs where "t, d" transitions to "s".
Some words ending in TD are pronounced more smoothly when added with a suffix, so we must replace the original final consonant TD with S.
This way the pronunciation will be much smoother.
When the word for "explosion" was created, two other new words were derived based on this rule.
This word formation phenomenon is not an isolated case, it is relatively common in English words.
We often find English words difficult to remember because we are not aware of the rules of their formation.
Once you master these, you will find that memorizing words can be so simple.
"The word divisive actually evolved from the verb divide. Just replace the last letter D of divide with S and add an adjective suffix."
It expresses the characteristics of those things that divide people.
The issue of abortion is often divisive and can divide people into opposing factions. In this regard, we can describe it as "controversial", which means that it can cause controversy, create conflicts, create differences, and even create divisions.
Such controversial words are very important to language expression.
In life, many topics are controversial, such as political opinions, religious beliefs, etc.
The word "divisive" is very appropriate when talking about these controversies.
"Here, 'in-' is used as a prefix to express a negative meaning. 'divid' is the abbreviation of 'divide', omitting the meaningless 'e' letter. After that, add the adjective suffix '-ual', and it becomes The word 'individual' was formed."
This word is often used in personal expressions or descriptions of people.
In human resource management, attention should be paid to the individual growth of each employee. This includes paying attention to the special needs and potential of each employee and treating each employee as an individual.
wid is equivalent to vid, except that a written form of the English letter e is added to it.
Wide originally refers to the feeling of being very wide after something is divided in the middle.
In the previous evolution of wid (widow) and vid (vidow), the ow part at the end lacked specific etymology. Therefore, the word widow is used to refer to a woman who is separated from her husband after his death, which is called "widow" or "widow" in Chinese.
In many literary works and historical narratives, the role of widow appears frequently, and she represents a unique social female identity.
To keep these words in mind is not just to simply memorize them, but also to have a deep understanding of the composition rules behind them.
This is of great help to English learning.
