First, you should look for the word you want to decipher.
Ex : look
Second, think of a word that is familiar or lighter in meaning. It is usually easily found in a sentence.
Ex : look - see

Through this, you will know its meaning. You can also know it through context clues.
Ex : I’m looking forward to meet you next time.
Ex : I think that our family has a get together next month.

Meet has the same meaning with get together. It is explained through using synonyms.
In short, synonyms are words that have the same or similar meaning. They are useful when describing something to avoid repeating a word used earlier.

In short, synonyms are can be used to get the meaning of a word by using context clues.
Also, you can use antonyms in decoding words through finding the opposite meaning of a word.

“Prayer of St. Francis”Make me a channel of peaceWhere there is hatred, let me bring your loveWhere there is injury your pardon, LordAnd where there’s doubt true faith in you Make me a channel of your peaceWhere there’s despair in life, let me bring hopeWhere there is darkness only lightAnd where there’s sadness, ever joy
(Refrain)Oh, Master, grant that I may never seekSo much to be consoled as to understandTo be understood as to understandTo be loved as to love with all my soul Make me a channel of your peaceIt is in pardoning that we are pardonedIn giving to all men that we receiveAnd in dying that we are born to eternal life.
