スミス英会話鶴橋校 Puzzles…expand your mind!

You are here: Home / English School Articles / スミス英会話鶴橋校 Puzzles…expand your mind!

Crossword puzzles are said to be the most popular and widespread word game in the world.  As for myself, I am just beginning to learn about how interesting they actually are.  I have done some in the past when I was a child, yet have never really immersed myself fully.  That is, until recently.   Paul, my partner at Smith’s School of English,  Tsuruhashi has re-introduced these “brain building, vocabulary boosting, mind boggling” word games into my life.  I’ve been buying The Daily Yomiuri at a small newstand in Tamatsukuri station every morning for the last 2 weeks.  My goal is to finish the whole thing by the time the day is done. As I am quite busy as of late, this is no easy task.  I tend to spend 5 minutes here, 5 minutes there trying to solve it little by little.  I’ve even had to call Paul a few times and ask him “What did you get for #6, down?  I’m stumped!”  It’s been a great way for me to do a little 脳トレンイング (brain training) while on my way to work.  I encourage any one who is looking to increase their vocabulary and challenge their linguistic ability to give it a try.

Good luck!

Mike
