To -fuer-mm: how to learn a new word

本帖于 2011-06-02 04:52:42 时间, 由版主 林贝卡 编辑

for example:

despotic

1. Check definition, find its synonym, antonym

despotic - ruled by or characteristic of a despot; "moved from a feudal to a despotic order"; "his administration was arrogant and despotic"

undemocratic - not in agreement with or according to democratic doctrine or practice or ideals; "the union broke with its past undemocratic procedures"

2. Recite it, find a similar word by sound, say despotic--deposit, because the latter is a common word. Then compare, one spelled with vowel i, the other spelled as vowel e ...

3. Make association: A despot deposed his aid after making a deposit.

4. Find its synonym and compare them, imperious, authoritarian, tyrannical, tyrannical, autocratic, dictatorial

undemocratic

5. Make a sentence and recite it.

6. Check its image

7. Check quotation of it

8. And more

Another example;Avarice would speak with every word, it "acts" every part and it even pretends to be not avaricious.

What is the trick in this sentence?
