                  B.  Guessing  meaning.  Learn  how  to  guess  the  meaning  of  a  word  from  its  context,  and  then
                      practice it.






                      When  you  try  to  guess  the  meaning  of  an  unknown  word,  you  use  the  text

                      surrounding the word – the context.

                        You can guess the meaning of a word from the other words in the sentence.

                        Sometimes, you need to read several sentences in order to guess the meaning of an
                         unknown word.


                       Example:


                       “We will purchase the half fare card. So we can get half price in all transportation modes by
                       using the card. I heard that the price of half fare card goes up. Is it true?”

                       You can guess from the keywords ‘the half fare card’, ‘the price’ and ‘goes up’ that the word
                       typed bold ‘purchase’ probably means to get something by exchanging it with money.
                       Therefore, the meaning of word purchase is: to buy.

                                     We  will  visit  Jungfrau  Region  in  early  August.  We  would  like  to  take  train  to
                                     Jungfraujoch as well as do some hiking (Eiger Trail). We are going to spend 3-4
                                     nights  in  the  area.  What  town  is  best  to  explore  this  area?  Leaning

                       Samas13       towards Lauterbrunnen, Wengen or Grindelwald, but I am not sure if there are
                                     better options.

                                     Also does it make sense to do a day trip to Thun from this region, or should that be
                                     a separate trip? We will purchase the half fare card. So we can get half price in all
                                     transportation trains by using the card. I heard that the price of half fare card goes
                                     up. Is it true?

                                                                                                           59
