Word Power Made Easy

By Norman Lawis

Synthetic audio, Automated braille

Summary

Word Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis is a comprehensive vocabulary-building guide designed to help readers strengthen their language skills in a structured, engaging way. Divided into clear sessions, the book introduces words through themes such as personality traits, professions,… science, and habits, ensuring contextual understanding rather than rote memorization. Each section begins with a diagnostic test to assess current knowledge, followed by step-by-step lessons that introduce new words, their meanings, origins, and proper usage. The book also incorporates review exercises and comprehensive tests at regular intervals to reinforce learning and track progress. More than just a dictionary of words, it emphasizes etymology, showing how roots, prefixes, and suffixes shape meaning, thereby enabling readers to decode unfamiliar words independently. By blending quizzes, repetition, and practical application, Lewis turns vocabulary building into a progressive skill rather than a chore. Ultimately, the book aims to not only expand word knowledge but also to improve overall communication, self-confidence, and comprehension, making it a lifelong reference for students, professionals, and language enthusiasts alike.
