Word: Analyse
Part of Speech: Verb
Meaning: Analyse means to look at something very carefully, part by part, in order to understand it.
Synonyms: study, inspect
Syllables: an - a - lyse
Tricky part: The middle has a y, not an i. In British English it ends in yse.
Watch out for: analise, analys
Memory tip: Analyse has the same y as analysis. If you can spell one, you can spell the other.
Example 1: The coach analysed the video of our match.
Example 2: Detectives analyse fingerprints to find out who was there.
Example 3: Our teacher analysed the test results to see which topics we found hard.
In Greek, analysis meant a loosening or untying, much like untying a knot to see how it was tied.
