Can anyone suggest me a magazine to develop my vocabulary?
I believe magazines will be written in current slang.
Also i'm more interested on comedy stuff so plz list out such magazines
For eg; article about bad customer service written in a hilarious manner.
Thanks in advance.
PS : - if u find any error in the above phrase correct that as well.

@Sigandi,
Try Reader's Digest. It's been around for years and has short articles, pieces of humor and a vocabulary section (image shown below), which offers up several words followed by choices of which you believe best defines said word. It then tells which is the correct answer and gives more information. Overall, it can be used as a prime source for vocabulary building. Just to be safe, always have a dictionary nearby so you can check on words which are unfamiliar.

@JTT,
Sig I'd omit "to me" entirely

Maybe it's okay JTT but "list out" sort of jars me

Me too, Dale. Maybe I should have used out instead.

Good stylistic consideration, Dale. With 'me' retained, a 'to' is necessary.

Thank you JTT for your support in this acrimonious parapraxis of nugatory fulmination
