| William Shakespeare, the donator of words to English |
In every language vocabulary, coupled with other rules of grammar,
plays major role in producing an effective piece of writing. Apart from that,
using different –yet appropriate – words make a person a brilliant and
persuasive speaker. The more a person is good in playing with the words is the
more in convincing people to his contentions. The same principle applies to
English language as well. We very often, while speaking or writing words, do
not realize who and how the very word came into existence. As a matter of fact,
words and languages came into existence after an evolution process. Many men ofletter make their contribution in enriching any language with a waste treasure
of words. Among these great people, William Shakespeare has invented more than
100 words in English language and many of these words are the most common in
usage. In the following we have selected these 15 words for which Shakespeare
is credited with invention and which are the most common in use, if not indispensable
for the language. Have a look at these words and pay gratitude to Shakespeare
for these –and many more – words. You will, then, realize that Shakespeare did not only contributed English literature with his magnificent dramas but he also contributed significantly to the treasure of vocabulary.

| A Well decorated luxurious Bed-Room |
In our houses the part which is cared about the most is our bed-rooms where we sleep, we rest and we spend quality time with our partners. And the bed-room is also the most private part of our houses as well where we do not want to give access to other people. Combining the words; ‘bed’ and ‘room’, William Shakespeare invented the word Bed-room which refers to the particular room in the house. In act II of Scene II from his play; “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” William Shakespeare wrote;
“I mean, that my heart unto yours is knit so that but one heart we can make of it; two bosoms interchained with an oath; so then two bosoms and a single troth. Then by your side no bed-room me deny; for lying so, Hermia, I do not lie”.
