Hi does anyone have a good technique for learning new vocabulary fast?
I seem to forget many of the words I looked up in the dictionary.

Hello Rori,

Try creating several sentences with the new word.

Write them onto paper.
Say them aloud.

The day that you find the new word, try using it in in various ways.

Don't try to learn too many words in one day.

It is better to learn a few new words very well and know them forever,
than to try for twenty that then vanish from your mind the next day.
