Vocabulary is the Key to Good Expression

For most of my life, I have been interested in words and vocabulary. Along the way, I met people who also wanted to improve theirs by books and calendars offering a new word a day. Often words you don't hear every day are found in such books, such as "obsequious" and "obviate". Other times I've heard people use words and have to go look them up.

In the "computer age", there are many choices to replace books and calendars with a program that can improve your vocabulary quickly and efficiently and the most recent I've found is Vocaboly. You can try the demo version with a computer voice, but the full version has a human voice in high quality recordings. Vocaboly makes learning and retaining the meanings of words fun and efficient, using both games and tests to stimulate you. I recommend you check out the demo and see if it can help keep your vocabulary on its toes!

Laziness can be your nemesis!
