We can do grammar exercises in grammar books,write E as much as possible. It makes us revise our knowledge and improve our writing skill. We can wath E on TV , learn to sing E songs,read short stories or newpapers in E,listen to the programs on the radio and E tapes.It makes us improve our listening and reading skills.We should use a distionary for reading. It makes us save up newwords. The best important is that we usually practise by speaking with friends and learing by heart all newword and texts.

Introduction

Learning vocabulary is a very important part of learning a language. The more words you know, the more you will be able to understand what you hear and read; and the better you will be able to say what you want to when speaking or writing.

Which words to learn

Every day you hear or read many new English words. You also find them in your dictionary when you are translating from your own language. You can’t possibly learn all these new words, so your first problem is to decide which ones to concentrate on. Here are some suggestions:

learn the words that are important to the subjects you are studying learn the words that you read or hear again and again learn the words that you know you will often want to use yourself do not learn words that are rare or not useful (your teacher can help you with this)

How to learn words

Once you have chosen which words to learn, you next have to decide how you are going to learn them. Here are a few ideas:

write the words in a notebook (with their translations or definitions) write the words and definitions on small cards
(advice on how to do this) say the words many times (if you have an electronic dictionary you can hear how the word is pronounced) put the words into different groups (you could use a graphic organiser) write them in a file for use with a computer program (such as Quizlet or theone on this site) make associations (in pictures or with other words) ask someone to test you use the words in your own speaking or writing

Some students put a tick or cross in their dictionary next to every word they look up. The next time they turn to a page with a marked word, they quickly check to see if they remember the meaning of that word.

In all of the above ways, you are doing something with the words. It’s usually not enough to just read through a list of words with their definitions or translations and try to remember them. Most students find that they memorise words better if they do something with them. Even better is to try and learn the word in a typical combination with other words. Learning that to apologizemeans to say sorry is a good start, but it's much better to learn a whole expression containing the word, e.g. He apologized for being late. Not only is this often easier to remember, but you are also learning some very important information on how the word is used.

Learning for vocabulary tests

The previous section on this page gives general advice on how to learn the words that you have chosen as important for you. Often, however, you will be given a set of words by your teacher and told to learn them for a vocabulary test. In this case you need to be sure exactly how you will be tested, because this will influence how you learn the words. There are several ways that the teacher might test your vocabulary learning, but the ways are broadly divided into two categories:

You will be given the word and have to: write a definition use it in an example sentence translate it into your language You will be given: a definition a gapped example sentence the translation in your language and you have to write the English word.

If you do a vocabulary test from the second group above, then in most cases you will need to learn the exact spelling of the word and will lose marks if you misspell it. As with all tests, be sure to ask the teacher exactly how you will be tested and exactly how you will be graded. You will then avoid wasting time studying something that you will be not be tested on.

Learning vocabulary by reading

The way you learned very many of the words in your own language was by meeting them in the books and magazines you read. The context of a new word in a sentence or story was often enough for you to guess the meaning. Meeting the word again and again in your reading helped you learn it for use in your own speaking and writing. Doing lots of extra reading for pleasure - both fiction and non-fiction - is an excellent way to learn new English words, too. But choose books that you find quite easy to read. Difficult stories or texts that you struggle to understand will not help you to develop your vocabulary the natural way. But remember: to learn new words from reading you have to read A LOT!

More on the importance of reading.

More information about learning words

The vocabulary you know can be divided into two groups - passive vocabulary and active vocabulary. Passive vocabulary contains all the words that you understand when you read or listen, but which you do not use (or cannot remember) in your own writing and speaking. Active vocabulary is all the words you understand, plus all the words that you can use yourself. Your active vocabulary, in English and your own language, is probably much smaller than your passive vocabulary.

The more you work on learning a word, as suggested above, the more likely it is that it will become part of your active vocabulary.

Things to know about the words you learn

Usually the first things you learn about a new English word are what it means and its translation in your own language. But there are other things you need to find out before you can say that you know a word like a native speaker does. For example, you have to learn:

how it is spelled how it is pronounced how it is inflected (i.e. how it changes if it is a verb, noun or adjective) other grammar information about it how it collocates (i.e. what other words are often used with it)
More on collocation if it has a particular style or register the context in which it is most likely to be used to.

Is Revisions?

Hello, everybody! Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Quynh, I am 13 years old and a student at Di Che secondary school . My favorite subject is Math and English. I was born and grew up in Hung Yen. At the moment, I am living with my parents and a younger brother.I am a quiet, a little bit childish but also factual, dexterous and romantic lady. In the education views, I am diligent, clever and patient with my study or even work and I never give up even though I know a lot of hardships are waiting for me in the future. My hobbies are jewellery collections, taking a walk in the afternoon, listening to music and watching movies. Particularly, I really love to watch how to make a sweet cake videos from the internet. I also enjoy playing badminton and riding a bicycle.My dream is to be a successful business woman so that now I am trying to study as hard as I can to get into the right subject that I love. And I also hope that my dream will come true and surely I will do everything to make it come true.

Goodevening every body! Let me introduce myself. My name is Pham Ngoc Anh but I'm a boy ^^. Now, I'm thirteen years old. My birthday is on the Second of the December. I live in An Vien with my family: my parents, my younger sister and I; but I also live in Di Che with my Maternal Grandparents. I go to Di Che Secondary School. At School, My Favourite subjects are Math, English, Phicsical, Chemistry. I like them, because, I think they are not only very important but also very interesting! However I don't like some, example Arts. I don't like Arts, even I hate it, because, It's very very diffucult, and, I can draw anything well. I have some hobbies. I like sports but I do not have much time to do, so I rarely play sports. My favourite sport is badminton. I like it, because of....because of no reason. My favourite game is chess. I like chess because it makes me more intelligent, and gives me a large view, about the game and my life. I started this hobby when I was ten. My mother taught me how to play, and she shared her experiences. And, I soon adored chess. I shared this hobby with my best friend, his name is Tai. At first, he didn't know how to play, so I taught him. He soon liked chess, too. And now, he plays better than I do . Now, we often play chess whenever we have free time. And this is my last hobby. You see, I like reading books. My favourite kind of book is novels, which're about some characters's lives or parts of their lives. Do you know, I always read books when I am lonely and stressed. Reading books makes me feel better. That's something about myself. How about you? Please introduce yourselves!!!!!!!!
