FOKUS MASTERI: EFFECTIVE VOCABULARY FOR PRIMARY STUDENTS by Manoj Nandy, Roslina binti Che Ibrahim, Yusnida binti Yusoff

Selecting the right word when you write helps you communicate clearly. Many words in the English language can be mixed-up with another word that sounds like it or looks similar, such as adapt and adept or affect and effect. I have listed a few of these troublesome words, what they mean, and how to use them correctly in a sentence; this list of definitions, however, can not replace your dictionary. By discussing every meaning of possible confusing words, I try to show how one words differs from another in a group of words that sound or look very much alike. I hope this book will benefit those who wish to speak and write proper and effective English.
