Answer:

The four steps to using word structure strategy when trying to determine the meaning of an unfamiliar word are:

1. Use context clues and word signals

Sometimes, the given of that unfamiliar word is through the meaning of the sentence. there are also times that the word may have a similar meaning (synonym) or different in meaning (antonym).

2. Use word parts

Word part such as the root word. Sometimes the root word are preceded by a prefix, followed by a suffix or inside such as infix.

3. If you are already familiar of the word, then you may use it in a sentence if it fits or not.

4. Use dictionary if all else fails

Sometimes, you just can't get the word right because all of the clues are hard to decipher.
