Vocabulary in Context

Choosing the right word means matching meaning to the situation. This chapter looks at common confusable words and everyday adjectives so you can pick the option that fits the sentence naturally.

Choosing by Meaning

Read the whole sentence before choosing. A clue such as 'saying only maybe' points to 'vague' (unclear), not 'valid' or 'vivid'.

Confusable Words

Words that look similar can differ sharply in meaning: 'complete' (finish) vs 'comply' (obey); 'alike' (similar) vs 'aloud' (out loud). Learn them in pairs.
