How to Make a New Word?

Mostly, words usually start with consonants, so always separate the vowels and consonants from jumbled words.

Combine a vowel and a consonant to make a word.

Examples:

From the word ‘HAPPY’, there are two words that can be made.

• PAY
• HAY

Common Mistake

1. There are many words that have similar spellings and pronunciation but are used in a different contexts. Always use these words in the right place.

Examples:

1. Two, too, and to

• Don’t use ‘two’ in place of ‘to’ in a sentence.

I have to wait for him.

I have two wait for him.

2. Here and Hear

2. While making new words from one word, make sure to create words that have proper meanings. Avoid making the mistake of creating words that don’t hold any meaning.
