Formation of Words
What is a Word? How Words are formed in English? Definition: Word is a smallest unit which have a meaning while you speak or write any language. Word is formed by an alphabet/letter or group of alphabets/letters.
Example: "I am a boy". Here each underlined section(I, am, a, boy) of the sentence is a word.
Observation:
When we write a sentence, a Space is included between words.
When we read a word it produces unique sound so people can understand and derive the meaning.
English alphabets are building blocks of a word. In the same way Words are building blocks of a sentence.
To master reading or writing a word, you have to master the phonic sound of each letter. If you pronounce the word correctly, then it is easier to write the spelling of the Word.
For LKG, We will focus on Simple word formation. To start we will discuss the words with Vowel Sounds. We will also discuss different "Word Families". At last we will discuss interesting section of Rhyming Words.
