*       Introduction   A synonym is a word that has the same meaning as another word. Synonyms are different words with almost identical or similar meanings.

    *       Introduction   Rearrangement of sentences or paragraph anagrams is the most commonly seen question in any language testing examination. It is interesting to know that this question does not examine any previously learnt concepts, neither is it based on any particular logic. A group of words or a word making a complete sense is called a sentence. Every sentence may be divided into two parts: Subject and Predicate. The Subject is a word, or a group of words that denotes the person or thing about whom or which something is said. It must be a noun or a noun-equivalent, and may consist of any number of words. The Predicate is a word, or a group of words that denotes what is said about the subject. It must contain at least a finite verb, expressed or understood. For example: My brother has gone. (My more...

    *       Introduction   We come across different words daily. Some words are simple as are normally used regularly, while a few are hard or difficult to understand. Words like, ruin, forecast, principle, etc. are common words. But certain words, like ingenious, adroit, infidel, agnostic, etc. are uncommon words and are difficult to understand. The usage of these words in sentences reduces the chance of easily understanding the text of meaning intended in the sentence. It is therefore very important that you develop a good store of vocabulary which will surely give you a niche in developing your sense of understanding English.     A list of few uncommon words which are tough to understand                                                   A   Abstain: Keep oneself more...

    *       Analogy   Introduction: Analogy means the similarity between like features of two things, on which a comparison may be based. For example: the analogy between the heart and a pump. It can also be stated as an inference or an argument from one particular to another particular, as opposed to deduction, induction, and abduction, where at least one of the premises or the conclusion is general. The word 'analogy' can also refer to the relation between the source and the target themselves, which is often, though not necessarily, a similarity, as in the biological notion of analogy.           Small : Large (a) Capable : Proficient                                  (b) Rich : Poor    (c) Prime :                                                           (d) None of these (e) None of these   Answer: (b) Explanation: more...
