Answer:

Base Words If these words are unfamilar to you, analyze each one

to see whether it contains a base word you know. Then, use your

knowledge of the base word, or “inside” word, along with context, to

determine the meaning of the concept word. Here is an example of how

to apply the strategy.

Unfamiliar Word: skillful

Familiar “Inside” Word: skill, with meanings including “expertise”

and “learned power”

Context: I was astonished at the professor’s skillful ability to pass

along complicated information.

Conclusion: The narrator is impressed with someone’s ability, so

skillful might mean “with skill,” or “showing expertise.”

Apply your knowledge of base words and other vocabulary strategies to

determine the meanings of unfamiliar words you encounter during your

first read.
