 ScOLa Vocabulary Journal
The ScOLa Vocabulary Journal aims to help you keep a record of the words that you will learn and use
in your level in a systematic way and study these words regularly.

What does it mean to “know a word”?

Knowing a word means knowing the target word’s definition, its other forms and their spellings, the
collocations, the word’s pronunciation and being able to use them in a sentence in the right context.
You may also learn and remember a word by learning the word’s synonyms and antonyms.

ScOLa Vocabulary Journal will help you study these aspects regularly, help you improve your use of
the dictionary, and equip you with word formation skills. You can also add your personal notes to
your journal.

It is important to bring this booklet with you to your lessons and add other new words that your
teacher introduces about the topic you are studying.

How is this booklet organized?

You are given the target word, the section where the word is found, and its other forms with the”
part of the speech” indicated as (v),(n),(adj.) etc. (See Figure 1)

 Target Word & Meaning Other forms Collocations Example Sentence
REACT (v): Reaction (n)

REVEAL (v): Revelation (n)

SLIGHTLY (adv): Slight (adj)

To complete your vocabulary journal:

1. You should write the target word’s meaning and/or its synonym, antonym or something that
reminds you of the meaning of the word during your lessons or outside the class.
2. You should write its collocations or commonly used word combinations.
3. You should record example sentences that your teacher suggests or from a dictionary.
4. You should add any other notes about the word (i.e. formal, informal, its usual context, or
reminders etc.)

Your completed ScoLa Vocabulary Journal may look like this (see Figure 2):

It is important that you use a Monolingual dictionary to complete your journal. You may use the
dictionaries below:

http://www.ldoceonline.com/ : Longman Dictionary

http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/learner-english/: Cambridge Learner’s Dictionary

http://www.merriam-webster.com/: Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary

http://oald8.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/: Oxford Learner’s Dictionary

What is “Word Formation”?

“Word formation” is the creation of new words by using Prefixes and Suffixes. Knowing about these
prefixes and suffixes and analyzing words according to them will help you guess the meaning of the
words in a text more effectively and expand your vocabulary knowledge and use.

Many English words are formed by taking basic words and adding combinations of prefixes and
suffixes to them.

A “Prefix” gives a specific meaning to a word and it is added to the beginning of the words. For
example, the word “misunderstand” consists of the prefix “mis-” and the word “understand”.
Although the word “understand” has a neutral meaning, with the prefix “mis-”, the word gains a
negative “☹” meaning. “Mis-” means “wrong”.

misunderstand (v): to understand someone in a wrong way; fail to understand someone in a correct
way (taken from http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/misunderstand)

Suffixes may also have a meaning and help you guess the word’s “part of speech”; in other words,
you can understand whether a word is a noun (n.), an adverb (adv.) or an adjective (adj.) etc. by
analyzing its suffix(es). For example, the word slowly consists of the word slow and the suffix -ly.

A word may have more than one suffix or prefix. For example; re-new-able or
promot-ion-al: verb->noun->adj.

In the charts below, you will see common suffixes and prefixes. You will also see their meanings, how
they are used, and example words. These charts will guide you while learning to form new words and
making logical guesses about the meanings of the words in a text.
