One word substitution

One word substitutes as the phrase indicates itself are the words that replace group of words
or a full sentence effectively without creating any kind of ambiguity in the meaning of the
sentences. Like the word Autobiography can be used in place of the sentence The life story of
a man written by himself. It is very important to write precisely and speak in a single word.
