The English Language Word Builder is essentially the combination of the previously published series of booklets from three to nine letters in length, with definitions removed and with
everyday words included. Within each chapter by word length, familiar words are listed separately, while less familiar words are organised into hook and non-hook groups. All familiar words are grouped by part of speech, as are non-hook less familiar words. New Collins words are shown in italics and will always be found in the chapters on less familiar words. End extensions of all words up to eight letters in length are shown in lower case, while symbols are used to infer standard and irregular extensions of words. The size is 321 pages, and the weight is just under 0.5kg. The Recommended Retail Price is $30US.
The inclusion of familiar words along with their part of speech makes this book beneficial to anyone wishing to improve their English vocabulary, from learners of English through to top level Scrabble players.
