How can recognising word families significantly boost your English vocabulary? On episode three of "Learn English with Natalie," we embark on an exciting exploration of word families and their transformative power in language learning. We kick things off with a quick, interactive recap of last week's lesson on phrasal verbs, ensuring you're all set for the new content. Next, we unravel the magic of word families—root words that morph into nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs—making your vocabulary richer and more dynamic. By understanding the patterns of word formation, you'll find your spelling, usage, reading comprehension, and writing skills improving in leaps and bounds.

Join us as we dive into practical examples such as "help," "save," and "care," demonstrating how these roots adapt to convey different meanings. We'll also guide you through the art of adding suffixes to alter word meanings. This episode promises to equip you with essential knowledge and tools to effectively grow your vocabulary. Don't forget to download the accompanying PDF activity from the notes to reinforce your learning. Tune in and transform your English skills with these foundational lessons!
