Paragraph Comprehension
Yesterday I presented a question about identifying Latin languages.
Which of the languages is a Latin language?
- Portuguese
- Russian
- Swedish
- Polish
Yesterday I presented this question on identifying the Latin language from the following choices: Portuguese, Russian, Swedish, and Polish. Were you able to identify which language is a Latin language? The correct answer is Portuguese. The other three languages are not Latin languages. As an ASVAB tutor, I emphasize the importance of studying Latin and Greek roots to improve vocabulary skills for the Word Knowledge section of the test. People who speak one of the Latin languages have an advantage in studying vocabulary since they recognize many of the root words and their meanings. Make sure to study Latin and Greek prefixes, root words, and suffixes in addition to ASVAB vocabulary words.
