🏡 Why Word Cycle: The Only Scientific Method
If you are not familiar with Word Cycle, don’t worry. I have a special and effective process to share with you. The Word Cycle is a funny and interesting game.
Do you know ‘antaksari’? In ‘antaksari’, you sing a song first. And then one has to sing a song with the last letter of that song. It continues.
This is a funny game indeed.
The Word Cycle is really the same. Here, you must start with a word, and then continue with the last letter of that word. It will continue for at least 15 minutes a day.
Here are three conditions.
- No use of proper nouns like any name (eg, Shovan, Kolkata, Geeta, Mt Everest, etc)
- No repeat on the same page.
- Don’t use the plural form unnecessarily. Always try to use the base word.
Here are some additional techniques to expand your vocabulary. Some of them are:
1. Read Every Day
Pick up storybooks, comics, or fairy tales. Every time you see a new word, note it down. Ask someone what it means and try using it.
2. Talk Differently
Instead of saying “I am happy,” try “I am cheerful” or “I am excited.” Words become stronger when you use them.
3. Word of the Day
Choose one new word daily. Example: fantastic. Use it 5 times:
“My drawing is fantastic.”
“This food is fantastic.”
“You are fantastic.”
📖 Why Are Words So Important?
Words are powerful. With them, you can:
- Understand stories better without getting stuck.
- Talk smartly—say “delicious” instead of just “tasty.”
- Write creatively—make your essays and poems shine.
- Feel confident—you’ll never run out of things to say.
😂 Funny Fact: Long ago, a writer named Shakespeare invented words like swagger and bedazzle. If he can make words, maybe you can too!
🎲 Fun Word Games
- Tongue Twisters: Try “She sells seashells by the seashore.” Bet you’ll giggle! 😂
- Storytelling: Pretend to be a superhero. “I am Captain Vocabulary, and my power is giggle juice!”

💡 Fact: Kids who sing nursery rhymes often become better readers later. Songs really help! 🎶
👩👩👦 How Adults Can Help You
- Parents can use new words at home—you can copy them.
- Teachers gently fix your mistakes (if you say “goed,” they’ll remind you it’s “went”).
- At home, make a Word Jar. Each time you use a new word, add a marble. When it’s full, celebrate! 🎉
😂 Funny Idea: Pretend you don’t understand your parents unless they use the new word. “Sorry, I don’t know ‘big.’ Did you mean ‘enormous’?”
📝 Tips to Become a Word Wizard
- Keep a Word Diary and decorate it with stickers.
- Challenge yourself: use one new word every day.
- Learn synonyms and opposites: “cold” = chilly, icy; opposite = hot, warm.
Words are like Pokémon—you’ve got to catch them all!
