Description

"What's in a Word" is designed to stimulate intermediate level learners of English to increase their active and passive vocabulary by focusing on meaning, appropriateness of use and pronunciation. New vocabulary is introduced thematically through interesting readings, and vocabulary building strategies are presented. The text teaches students to use a monolingual dictionary, expands on known words, and analyses grammar, spelling and collocation of words in a semantic field. In addition, it provides a communicative context to practice the words and reinforces sight and sound associations.
