From a speech pathologist's perspective, vocabulary refers to the set of words that a person knows and understands in a language. It encompasses a person's ability to comprehend, recognize, and use words effectively in both spoken and written communication. Vocabulary plays a crucial role in language development, comprehension, and expression.
Speech pathologists often assess an individual's vocabulary skills, including their receptive vocabulary (the words they understand when they hear or read them) and expressive vocabulary (the words they can use when speaking or writing). They work with individuals, especially those with speech and language disorders, to expand and improve their vocabulary to enhance their overall communication abilities. This may involve teaching new words, helping individuals understand word meanings in context, and addressing specific vocabulary deficits that can impact communication and literacy skills.

K12 Reader: Greek and Latin Root Words-Like the roots of a tree, root words provide the foundation of many English words. Prefixes, suffixes, or other root words add meaning to the root. If students understand the meaning of these different components, they get a clue to the meaning of the whole word. For example, tele-, a suffix meaning far, added to the root "graph" which means write, makes "telegraph". Telegraph is "far writing" or a way of communicating over distance. Our worksheets on root words are listed below. You may use them for free at home or in the classroom.
