As Trigonometry helps in solving measurement problems in mathematics similarly Vocabmetry is a learning methodology for vocabulary. The application of mathematical equations is simple and universally accepted. However, if we try to impregnate its concepts in a vast subject like English vocabulary, its benefits can stretch beyond imagination. Vocabmetry is an initiative by Rahul Parashar, which has received huge appreciation for its unique and effective conceptualisation. With stimulating stories attached to each word assisted with three distinct coordinates, Vocabmetry gives a memorable touch to vocabulary. Until now, myriad of learners in Bhopal and Delhi, in addition to nearly ten thousand digital students, have imbibed many intricate words and enhanced their vocabulary. Encouraged by the interest and appreciation for Vocabmetry shown by learners, Rahul aims to spread this fundamental concept to the ground level of the education system as well. For the same, several state governments have approached to apply this course to improve their tribal school standard. Soon Vocabmetry will be a part of their school’s curriculum.

In the 21st century, the pattern of Vocabmetry has proven fruitful for the aspirants of competitive exams like UPSC, CLAT, CAT, GRE, etc. However, Rahul plans to spread his concept to the village level as well. He believes that in the current education milieu, an individual can hardly escape the English language. So, if one wants to acquire a skill for their lifetime, it only deems practical to be terrific in the field.
Numerous etymologists have tried to derive the meaning of the words from their roots of different origins. However, this process has its flaws. For instance, some of those roots, like ‘Ami’, in amiable, amicable, and ‘amiss’ might confuse the learner as ‘Ami‘ refers to both polite and harsh. Fortunately, Rahul Parashar understood such fundamental issues and tackled the problem by developing a fascinating vocabulary enhancement process known as Vocabmetry.
Cramming any book and, specifically, a dictionary often accounts in the list of failed endeavours. But, what if the words narrated stories to you? One might not remember the title of our English chapters from school; yet, the stories shared in the four walls of the classroom are engraved in our minds. Rahul wanted the words to resonate with his students in a similar way.
But how did Mr. Parashar get the idea of such an innovative way of learning vocabulary? He shares that, one day while sitting sat alone in his room with a pen and paper, he opened the first few pages of his dictionary and jotted the words he saw. He then made a list comprising several words starting with ‘ab’, including abject, abridge, abdicate, abominable, abound, etc. During the process, Mr. Parashar realised that the pronunciation of ab synced with ‘ape’, which gave the words a character. Soon, he perceived that if one would categorise words with similar starting or ending combinations and associate hilarious comic characters to them, the terms will become unforgettable for a student.
Through this Rahul incubated a fool-proof system, where such most common starting combinations and ending combinations along with letters in between were termed as start and end coordinates. These dedicated a unique story to each word. As a result, Rahul Parashar developed a fundamental process of learning vocabulary with the help of these developed coordinates and a handful of 110 memorable characters and is now pursuing the expansion of Vocabmetry to approximate 27,500 words.
