hey everybody welcome back to let's talk
this is me mira and i welcome you all to
a new lesson where we are going to learn
just a very very basic trick to learn
new words in a very faster way in a much
faster way now when we think about new
words you always think oh my goodness i
am already struggling with the words
that i know
how will i learn new words well the
trick is
that all you have to know is the root
word now what is a root word
a root word
is
is the simplest form of any word for
example
cover
similar
organized
like
these are root words
what happens when we learn
a prefix or prefixes what is a prefix to
begin with prefix is nothing but
um certain words certain letters
added before
before the word right just the way i
have written all the words over here and
then there is a dash that means that
these letters are added before the word
begins
now the trick is
even if you learn these basic prefixes
you would actually learn so many more
words already
now let's take a look at the first
example
let's just focus on u n on
now what do these actually mean they
usually are used to
negate
the certain word or
write an opposite of a certain word
now
in the first example
the root word is
cover
this is the root word and we have added
on now you would say
what is the meaning of cover
to shut something right to close
something it could be an object or it
could even be the truth right to cover
the truth or to keep a secret which
means to cover something
and when you add
a simple two letters u n it becomes the
opposite of it uncover that means to
disclose the truth
which means you're actually saying
that i'm going to uncover
the truth or uncover the secret and you
change the meaning of the root word
completely and it becomes the opposite
of it with the word
on
i hope you got it and i am going to make
sure that you get it the whole part and
you learn more words by the end of the
lesson the next word is
root word is organized
now guys the s over here is always
debated with a z or a z
but basically it means the same
organize something to keep everything
aligned to keep everything in order
means to organize something right um i
have organized my
shelf
okay and i have organized my files
according to the letters from a to z a
simple terminology and when i add
un to it which means the opposite of
organization of organized which means
i've
not kept things aligned i've not kept
things in order
now this is how you've already learned
four words
what
cover is one word uncover is another
word and your itself you have learnt
four words now moving on to the next one
unlike this is a simple one
but the reason why i have kept is
because the root word is simple
like to like something to like someone i
like all of you i like english
now to unlike something when you like
something on facebook there are some
people who also
unlike something not just facebook but
anywhere these days and that's how
exactly that's how you learn new words
and you start using them in your daily
language and that is how you start to
sound
more smart as well
now the same thing is with this now
discover uncover something is completely
different and to discover something is
completely different
yet
guys the common thing is the root word
cover and cover and that is exactly why
i have put it here so that you
understand that just with one word there
are so many words we have learnt now to
discover something which means to
explore something to find something new
you have discovered that there is um
a small insect in your room it's
something new you do not know about it
or
i have discovered a new
channel and i have subscribed to it is
also another way
completely different from the word
uncover right
discover is completely different from it
but
here the prefix is this and the root
word is cover
moving on the same example over here the
root word is same organized
and the prefix changes to this which
means the same
to disorgan to be disorganized that
means
my child or my son is disorganized i'm
teaching him how to organize his books
his clothes the reason why i mention
this is it's easier to remember the
difference you can use the word
unorganized for professional purposes
and for formal purposes for example an
organization is unorganized
or an office or the meeting was
unorganized and you can use disorganized
for more informal situations such as
your child or your friend or you
yourself maybe okay that's an easier way
to remember what to use where
all right now dislike is the same as
unlike um just a very very minute
difference over here is that um
probably unlike could be to not like
something or to
that something that you've liked before
and you're just reversing that
and you're not liking it anymore and
dislike means you just don't like it
anymore i dislike mushrooms or i dislike
broccoli you cannot unlike broccoli you
can unlike a photo okay
now in
incorrect opposite of correct
correct
base word
incorrect makes it
opposite not correct your answer is
incorrect
independent dependent means to do
something on your own to be able to do
something on your own when you see the
root word which is dependent which means
to depend on someone for something i
cannot do things without someone now
independent is just the opposite of it
which means i'm capable of doing things
on my own
similarly
non when added to the root word sense
becomes the opposite of sense this does
not make sense you can say this is
nonsense that means it doesn't make any
sense to me moving on to the next rule
it's more of
an understanding which is sort of will
clear your confusion
now
im
also in many cases
in
usually when added to the um
words starting with the same letter is
something you must remember that it just
makes it see for example
i
am that is the m and m
root word is
material
okay
m
which also means the opposite of
material is immaterial right you don't
care about that material or an object
this is immaterial
to me okay obviously it's opposite but
we are remembering that
i am added to the words with the same
letters will always have
double
letters okay this is the first example
ill
is the addition which is the prefix to
the base word
logical
okay something that makes sense and
illogical just makes it the opposite of
it
these are the two words similarly the
next is
irrelevant again ir
is added to the base verb
relevant starting with the same letter r
all you have to remember is that
whenever you're using these prefixes for
the letters
words starting with the same letters you
will have
double
letters over here do not get confused do
not worry you are going correct you are
doing right
now balance is the base word and
imbalance which means to lose balance
okay a logical opposite of logical this
doesn't make sense
illegal legal being the base word
ill makes it something is legal and
something is illegal okay you should
always walk on the legal path and try
not to do illegal things drinking under
the age of 18 is illegal okay
now irrelevant
whatever you're saying is irrelevant to
me that means i don't understand it or i
just don't care for it but it doesn't
make sense to me
now irregular when someone is
a regular on the channel they follow the
tricks and tips very easily and are able
to learn faster
whereas the irregular people
take time to learn okay they they are
slow now the last one so this was the
first one
second
and the third is
whenever
r e is added to the root words it just
means repeating a certain process for
example live is the base word relive
means what does that mean
to to have that process again to live
again if i get a chance to relive i
would become a pilot that means if i get
a chance to live again i will become a
pilot so re basically
adds to the words and they give and the
meaning becomes to repeat a certain
process
now base word visit and re similarly
tell me what does that mean to visit
again so guys do visit our channel again
i'm going to be back with another lesson
i hope this has made you learn new words
but when i when i come back i'll come
back with a new topic until then you
keep practicing spread a lot of love
this is me meera signing off for the day
guys ciao
