The Latin and Greek Roots of English Words Keyed to Selected and Targeted Vocabulary: For Use by High Schoolers, Middle Schoolers, Elementary Schoolers, Homeschoolers, and Self-Learners
This book is a tool intended to give readers a knowledge of, and feel for, the most basic building blocks of vocabulary, namely the roots that are the basis of so many English words. Knowing these roots enables readers to gain greater reading fluency. Armed with these roots, readers can guess the meanings of unfamiliar words without a feeling of helplessness and without unnecessary dependence upon a dictionary. In this way, reading becomes more fluid, more rewarding, less burdensome, and-most important-less frustrating. The passport to successful reading is frequent reading of varied texts. Frequent reading presupposes confidence in one's reading ability. This book is meant to give one that confidence.
