D. Discussion Word cline can help you discover and use new words or
vocabulary. Word clines are composed of different words that
are related to each other. They are words with similar meanings
(synonym) but with different levels of intensity. These words are
placed within a slope which goes from one extreme to another.

Study the examples.

Analyze the examples above by answering the questions below.

• In Example A, which word has the weakest intensity?

• In Example A, which word has the strongest intensity?
• In Example B, which word has the weakest intensity?
• In Example B, which word has the strongest intensity?

Learning Task 1: Read the words inside the box. Arrange them
from weakest to strongest. Place the weakest word to strongest
word in Box 1, 2, and 3. Do this on your answer sheet.

Learning Task 2: Read the lists of words. Arrange them from

weakest to strongest. Write each set in a cline. Do this on your
answer sheet.

1. jubilant, happy, joyful

2. pretty, beautiful, glamorous
3. cold, chilly, freezing

Word cline is a presentation of words in different levels of

intensity. The words in a cline have related meanings but differ
in levels. Usually, the words are arranged in extremes from the
weakest word to the strongest word.

In creating word clines, it is very helpful to know the synonyms

of a word. Remember that these words are related but they differ
in level.

Study the picture below.

How many shirts do you see?
Do you have shirts too?
In what color are they?
Are they small? Or are they big?

Look at the shirts and see how they are organized.

The shirts are arranged from the smallest to the largest. Let us
describe the shirts so we can create a set of words.

We can describe Shirt 1 as small. Shirt 3 is large. How about

Shirt 2 is it of the same size as Shirt 1? Or is it as big as Shirt 3?

The size of Shirt 2 is in between small and large, so we can

describe Shirt 2 as medium. We write the words in the cline
below.

The word small is at the bottom of the word cline because it has
the least quality. The word large is at the top because it has the
greatest quality. Meanwhile, the word medium is placed in the
middle because its intensity is in between small and large.
