What happened
The Hindu ran a compact language-learning “word of the day” vocabulary feature. The feature presented a single target word and linked it to synonyms, antonyms, and pronunciation.
Background and earlier position
Vocabulary practice formats with daily word lists (including synonyms, antonyms, and pronunciation) are common in general-language learning. Such features typically support reading comprehension and writing accuracy rather than testing domain-specific knowledge.
What changed now
The provided text indicates the feature is tied to a specific page section on the same page format, and it updates with each daily “word of the day” entry. The mechanism is a new daily word, not a change in policy or exam structure.
