Fascination with words-their meanings, origins, pronunciation, usages-is something most of us experience at some point. This book aims both to fuel and to satisfy that fascination. The book is based on a course that each of the authors helped to develop at Stanford University over the past twenty years. The aim of the course was to help students master English vocabulary and to provide the fundamentals for pursuing an interest in English words. To this end, the book offers a detailed but introductory survey of the developments that have given English a uniquely rich vocabulary, taking into account both the changing structure of the language and the historical events that shaped the language as a whole. Anyone who believes that changes in the language are robbing it of its elegance or expressive power will see this view challenged by the developments described here. At the core of the book are a set of several hundred vocabulary elements that English borrowed, directly or indirectly, over the past fifteen hundred years, from Latin and Greek.; These elements, introduced gradually chapter by chapter, provide a key to understanding the structure and meaning of much of the learned vocabulary of the language. The chapters trace the history and structure of English words from the sixth century onward, laying out the major influences that are still observable in our vocabulary today. Each chapter ends with a large number of exercises. These offer many different types of practice with the material in the text, making it possible to tailor the work to different sets of needs and interests. Upon finishing this textbook, students will be able to penetrate the structure of an enormous portion of the vocabulary of English, with or without the help of a dictionary, and to understand better how an individual word fits into the system of the language. This second edition incorporates improved and refined text as well as examples and exercises, with thorough revision of pedagogy as a result of their significant classroom-based expertise. The new edition also updates cultural references, accounts for variations in pronunciation among students, and clarifies when historical details are important or peripheral.

English is a global language spoken worldwide by nearly 400 million native speakers and 750 million people of different ethnicities as a second language, making it the largest spoken language in the world. While there are multiple dialects and accents including North American, British English, Australian, African and Asian to name a few, it can often be interpreted by people using a different dialect and accent which makes communicating in English, one of the most essential skills to have. Being able to read, write, speak and understand English is necessary for business, travel, education, career and for maintaining international relations. The most successful people in the world have mastered their communication skills in English. It helps them have a better life not only professionally but also personally. These people can express themselves better and maintain good relations with their family and friends. Every language comprises of two parts – grammar and vocabulary. While grammar can be learnt at schools, colleges, universities, private institutions or using English grammar books, learning vocabulary and being able to remember it and utilize it in everyday communication has always been a challenge. Dictionaries have been the oldest and most basic source of learning English vocabulary. They provide word meanings and sentences. Thesaurus provides synonyms of words. Other English books provide antonyms, idioms and phrases. But all these serve more as a reference than a learning source since memorizing a plethora of words from these sources is almost impractical. And yet most books for competitive exams in the market today list thousands of words and meanings and expect people to memorize them. Institutes and Universities encourage people to read novels or fiction books voraciously in the hope that people will be able to improve their vocabulary. What they fail to understand is readers must read hundreds of books to learn hundreds of words. There is never a certainty that the books they read will have a disjoint set of words. Even if they do, it will only take several years before a reader will be able to master hundreds of words. In order to resolve the above conundrum and make it convenient for readers to learn thousands of words with just one book and in a span of only two to three months, an attempt has been made in the form of The English Bunny. The English Bunny is a collection of short stories and prides itself on covering close to 2500 words and their meanings in just about 150 pages with 1 story per page and each story not exceeding 20 lines.

This book contains 25 essays about English words, and how they are defined, valued, and discussed. The book is divided into four sections. The first section, "Language Lore," examines some of the myths and misconceptions that affect attitudes toward language--and towards English in particular. The second section, "Language Usage," examines some specific questions of meaning and usage. Section 3, "Language Trends," examines some controversial trends in English vocabulary, and some developments too new to have received comment before. The fourth section, "Language Politics," treats several aspects of linguistic politics, from special attempts to deal with the ethnic, religious, or sex-specific elements of vocabulary to the broader issues of language both as a reflection of the public consciousness and the U.S. Constitution and as a refuge for the most private forms of expression.
