π Five ways to expand your English vocabulary
β Read anything and everything you like
Immerse into English through the imagination! Read something you are passionate about. Love sports? Read sports articles. Fond of movies? Read movie scripts. Reading is effective, as you learn words as a part of a story, not out of context.
β Donβt limit yourself to one word
Learned a new word? Investigate if it has other forms and study them too. For example: predict (verb), prediction (noun), predictor (noun), predictable (adjective). Now you know four words instead of one!
β Listen to any spoken English that you can
Listening plays a crucial role in the pronunciation and usage of new words. There are plenty of ways to implement this tip: from listening to podcasts and watching movies to attending events with English-speaking presenters.
β Try to memorize words directly from the English
A bilingual dictionary is not the best choice: try to use English to English one (Merriam-Webster or Oxford). When you look at the definition of a new word, you may come across other unfamiliar ones and maximize the result.
β Practice makes perfect
Take the words you've learned for a test drive. Speak to someone who is fluent in English and get feedback on your usage of new vocabulary. You may also communicate with other English learners on language exchange apps and ask questions on thematic forums.
We hope these tips will help you boost your English vocabulary. Productive studying!
