Well Lucy
quick question
Why did you use the bathroom?
As your main example
In this entire video
Look, do not worry about that
He would be fine
If you ask language teachers
How do I develop my vocabulary?
They might say something similar to
Reading books
Watch movies
Speak with native speakers
Practice vocabulary
Repetition, repetition, tkaraar!
These are all valid points!
When I learn Spanish
I was able to expand my vocabulary incredibly
This is a style I have created for myself
This method may already exist
But I identified my needs and created a solution
I needed something I could do
Little by little
Day after day
I will explain to you how you can do this method too
My style will help you train your brain
Start thinking about the following language
if. What is the first step
OK. When you wake up in the morning
You need somehow to remind yourself
Today I will search for words I do not know before
continuously!
So if you put a sticker on your door
Note on the fridge
Reminder on your phone
Anything to remind you today
new words!
So, since you left the house
You need to be attentive
For words you do not know
Try to start thinking about the language you are learning
In my Spanish case
So I think in Spanish
I see a pigeon
Well, I know that
I see the bus stop
I’m not sure I know that in Spanish
So, I go to my phone quickly
Write in English
And I forget that
I keep doing so throughout the day
So keep in touch
Do you know that in Spanish?
Yes, leave it
Do you know that in Spanish?
No, type it
You may end up with five words at the end of the day
And may end with 20 words
in the end of the day
It depends on your level and also where you are
By doing this you are exercising your mind
To get used to
Think of stuff in the second language
And will help you in fluency
Then, you create a list
In your phone
Of all the things I’ve seen all day
Which you do not know how to say
Now the most important part of this
Come when you arrive home in the evening
So, when you go home from work
Or university on this day
Need to dedicate a few minutes
A memorandum shall be established
I use Notepad for this, to
I love using two pages a day
So, I’ll write history
Write a short sentence about what you did on this day
And then go straight and take a look
On words that I did not know today
In my phone and add them to Notepad
So……
So, the word I saw today was
Dove, Express, Bus stand, Jewelry and skyscraper
I did not know how to say those words in Spanish
So, go to the next page
I look for them on the Internet
So, the first word was “Dove”
Go to my computer
Use a location as “WordRefereence”
Search for “pigeon”
Listen to pronunciation
Great..
Then add that to my notebook
One of my words was a “skyscraper”
Which I did not know
So, I will use the site ‘WordRefereence’ to search for “skyscraper”
Then listen to the pronunciation
Well, I’ll add it to my notebook
Great! Then I keep doing it
Until the list is filled
Then I have a final list
With all new vocabulary
Which I saw today
So, ideally you need to do these diary every day
Make it a part of your life
And part of your routine
So, I do it by following this process
This method
You exercise your mind
Be constantly looking and making sure
The words are known in the second language
And immediately
When you do not know
Hazzer! You write that word
And then you know you will look for it later
It ‘s interesting to look back through
Your notebooks after months of doing this
Because you see words and just think
God, I can not believe I did not know how to say it
When you wake up the next morning
After you have completed your notes the night before
You should immediately see
Skyscraper = rascacielos
Dove = paloma
You just keep going, it’s there, it’s in your mind
Once you’ve trained your mind to think and work that way
It will be much easier to capture vocabulary
Wa also to determine where your vocabulary leaks!
For many of you, it is possible not to work
Give a try
If you work I would love to hear your success stories
If you ask …..
