Let’s learn about compound words in English! This is when two or more words come together, making a new word that functions as a single word.

Compound words can be:

• - nouns: ice cream, mailbox, merry-go-round
• - verbs: babysit, take off, double-check
• - adjectives: long-term, homemade, bulletproof
• - adverbs: singlehandedly, self-consciously
• - prepositions: inside, without

As you can see from those examples of compound words, there are three types:

• - "Open" compound words (with a space between them) police officer, hot dog, high school
• - "Closed" compound words (without a space between them) bedroom, popcorn, firefighter
• - Hyphenated compound words well-dressed, self-esteem, mother-in-law 

Today I’ll teach you 30 compound words - some you might already know, but others will be new to you. And I’ve prepared a free PDF with 100 compound words, each one with a definition and example sentence - I highly recommend you download it to expand your vocabulary even more!

Let’s learn all about superlative adjectives - when to use them, how to form them, and mistakes to avoid!

Adjectives are words that describe things, and superlative adjectives compare 3 or more things, or compare one thing to all others. Here are some examples:

 - My grandmother is the oldest person in my family.  - Russia is the biggest country in the world.  - This is the easiest test I’ve ever taken.  - I just finished the most interesting book I’ve ever read

How do we form superlatives? Let me quickly explain 5 rules and give you a few examples of each. And make sure to listen to the end because I’ll explain the most common error I see English learners make with superlatives.

Want to expand your vocabulary amazingly fast? Today we’re going to take 25 words and turn them into 100 words by learning their multiple forms - a noun form, verb form, adjective form, and adverb form.

You probably already know the English word beautiful - that’s an adjective, it describes a person or thing. Now, make sure you know all 4 forms:

§  Noun: I stopped to admire the beauty of the sunset. (in this sentence it’s being used as a noun - THE beauty)

§  Verb: She painted some flowers on the wall to beautify the room. (beautify is an action, a verb, meaning to make something beautiful)

§  Adjective: I bought a beautiful new dress. (as an adjective, it describes a thing - in this case, a dress)

§  Adverb: He sings beautifully.(as an adverb, it describes a verb - the way he sings)

Let’s keep going with more English words that have 4 forms.
