No one knows how man learned to make words. Perhaps he began by making sounds like those made
by animals. Perhaps he made sounds like those he heard all round him--water splashing (溅落), bees
humming, a stone falling to the ground. Somehow he learned to make words. As the centuries went by, he
made more and more new words. This is what we mean by language. People living in different countries
made different kinds of words. Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world. Each
contains four or five hundred thousand words, but we do not need all of these. Only a few thousand words
are used in everyday life.
The words you know are called your vocabulary. You should try to make your vocabulary bigger, read
as many books as you can. There are plenty of books written in easy English for you to read. You will enjoy
them. When you meet a new word, look it up in your dictionary. Your dictionary is your most useful book. |
