1100 Words You Need to Know has been one of the top-rated and best-selling vocabulary books in the market for over 4 decades published by Barron’s Educational Series and written by Murray Bromberg and Melvin Gordon. This advanced vocabulary book helps you to learn advanced academic words and idioms in context with answer keys by the end of the book. Many students and SAT / ACT candidates have been satisfied with this book and its various sections, especially analogy exercises in real context, such as novels, magazines, TV shows, etc.
One of the problems of 1100 Words You Need to Know is that in this fat vocabulary book, you cannot find even one image or illustration and the abstract words are not thematically organized. For this particular reason, at LELB Society, we have illustrated all the 1100 words and idioms very carefully so that you can make easy associations between the abstract words and their concepts for a better and longer retention.
In addition, all of the words in 1100 Words You Need to Know are accessible in the form of flashcards organized around themes and subjects together with the other words from other vocabulary books, such as 504 Absolutely Essential Words, 601 Words You Need to Know to Pass Your Exam and other English vocabulary in real context with images.
