Language is powerful: the skilled use of language allows people to inform, to question, to influence and to persuade others. Language can create bonds and dissolve them. It can be used deliberately to confuse, to disguise and to mislead. By developing your skills in writing, reading and speaking, you will become better at using language and more likely to perceive those times when language is designed to manipulate your emotions, your understanding of events, or your beliefs.

A key part of improving your ability to harness the power of language is to build your vocabulary, so that you might choose words with precision. Being able to spell the words in your increased vocabulary is also important!
