Answer:

Use context clues to try and figure out what it means.

Step-by-step explanation:

For instance, if a book said "the man saw his missing treasure, and he was crestfallen," you could assume that the word "crestfallen" meant something like "disappointed" because if someone had missing treasure, they probably would be sad or angry.
