Domain-Specific Vocabulary Words

Introduction

When we are reading, writing, and speaking about a topic, we often have to use specific vocabulary to sound like experts in that topic. These words are not in our regular everyday vocabulary, but they deal with a particular subject or domain. There are three levels of our vocabulary, as shown in the video below.
