(If you’re a foreign student or someone completely new to the English language, you should also buy a dictionary to keep by your side.)Īlright, don’t hold your breath when reading because, as I mentioned, this is a long list. If you’re really up for a challenge, aim to use one of these words in conversation or your writing each day. You’ll see that I didn’t try to find the biggest words, but I aimed to find the most practical words that you might not know or would give you a helpful refresher.
This list started at 50 words, then I got ambitious and went for 75 because I had more to say. To address this need, I went overboard and compiled a list of 101 college vocabulary words to improve your speech and writing. Instead, they’re stuck saying “like”, “very,” “you know what I mean,” and “awesome” in every other sentence. Īnd then when it’s time to write a paper, give a class presentation, or communicate good interview answers, they lack the right words that would help them give the best impression. Although I think college students who don’t utilize the benefits of reading end up with weak vocabulary skills. It would be kind of ridiculous to do a vocab workbook in a college course. And then to make sure we really understood them, we would have to write sentences and use the word correctly. Then pick their meaning in multiple choice questions. We would first have to memorize the words.
Remember those vocabulary workbooks you had to go through in grade school? If your school was like mine, we had a new chapter each week with 20 different vocabulary words. There aren’t any workbooks of college vocabulary words, and that’s a shame.
