How to learn english words

The problem is that I always forget the meaning of the words…Can U give me some advice how to remember them…?

You should read other topics in the forum. Some advice has already been given.
I have tried quite a few things in my life:

  1. cramming
  2. marking the words I look up in the dictionary so that the next time I find them in the text and look up again I feel ashamed and try to memorise the word
  3. teaching others - when you come to a class you are expected to know the words you are teaching. Sometimes it happens that you have to teach some words which are new for you. So, they stay in your head without any additional efforts, just stress - this is my best method to learn words.
  4. reading books - sometimes you cannot do without the meaning of a certain word. The context helps you memorise it. Some of them, however, are too difficult to memorise at once, therefore, you look them up quite a few times.

Well right now I am trying to do this by reading english books, but anyway thanx for your advices…Mirkt

If you forgot the meaning of the word - look it up in a dictionary!

Easily - learning words by heart can lead you to astray. The best way I learn English is simply writing letters or topics using new words. That’s simple Cha cha

The best way of learning new words is writing letters…
…maybe you like music? maybe you heared new song and you liked the lyric, maybe you would like to understand every word? translate it and every time you’ll hear it try to sing or something something Šypsena
Anyway, whatever way you’ll choose to learn, good luck!

You say that we need to write letters, but if I have not penfriend and if I don’t read books (haven’t time) how then I must learn new words. I need english for my job, for conference, for article writing.

I’m sorry for my poor English. I try write after two years of cessation.

When i learn English words, at first i read all English and Lithuanian words from the list. Then i cover English words and try to remember… then i cover Lithuanian words… it suits me to learn English wordsTaip
