76、ly tell, this is one of popular and crowded classes. Indeed, every time these courses are offered, this room is very full. Why is that? Well, in order to use the English language, its very important to have at least a basic understanding of how words are formed. Just to mention one figure, and there
77、 are many. There are about one million words in English. If you are an English learner, you might wonder how you can possibly remember all of these words. Well, for one thing you dont have to. No native speaker exists who knows all of the words in the English language. Besides, there are shortcuts.
78、Shortcuts? Yes, for example, if you know how words are formed by using parts of words from other languages, such as Greek and French, youll understand a good number of English words when you first come across them. Let me put it this way. Knowing the rules will help you to master a large number of words. This is probably the No. 1 reason why this class is so popular.
