Did you know that vocabulary is more important than grammar? If you have good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully even if the grammar is not completely perfect.
However, one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them - so when you want to use a particular word in conversation, you can't remember it at that moment. How annoying!
Does this ever happen to you?
The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and memorizing the words - but this is NOT effective (unless you naturally have a very good memory!)
The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully is... Learn new words and USE them immediately!
You can do this with a very simple exercise.
