English Vocabulary Guide

Welcome to the WhiteSmoke vocabulary guide section of our English Lessons pages. Here you can find articles about key topics in English vocabulary and semantics (the meaning of words) that will teach you about writing more correctly and make you understand the vocabulary corrections and enrichment suggestions offered by the WhiteSmoke online English writing and grammar software. Remember that even experienced writers always have their writing edited for vocabulary (word replacement with synonyms, enrichment, register, collocations or word appropriateness).

As we cannot always make sure that we have not made any semantic mistakes, WhiteSmoke offers you the best solution for a smart synonym finder and a groundbreaking unique adjective and adverb enrichment generator. In addition, WhiteSmoke offers you a modern English dictionary with additional translations to 18 languages. Put together, the WhiteSmoke software gives you powerfool tools to boost your vocabulary, which is a key factor in upgrading any English document.

As English has the largest vocabulary compared to other languages, with estimates running between 500,000 and one million word items, it is important to know how to enrich your vocabulary. Words together form phrases, figures of speech and idioms which enrich one's language figuratively and symbolically. In addition to tips on memorizing words, our vocabulary guide allows you to access information on word formation and derivation (roots, prefixes and suffixes), phrasal verbs, synonyms, antonyms, word origins in English, dictionary use, cliches, jargon, and words commonly confused.
