[00:00.000]If you want to speak and understand more, you'll need to know more words.
[00:05.000]So today you'll discover five ways to master vocabulary fast.
[00:11.000]But first, if you don't yet have access to our language learning system,
[00:16.000]sign up for a free lifetime account right now.
[00:20.000]Just click the link in the description to get your free lifetime account.
[00:25.000]Before we jump into how,
[00:27.000]just know that when you learn more words, you pretty much improve everything.
[00:32.000]Reading, writing, listening and speaking.
[00:35.000]So it's important to always be learning new words across a range of topics,
[00:40.000]so that you can speak fluently in all situations.
[00:43.000]If you haven't done so already,
[00:45.000]come up with a specific number of words you'd like to master a month
[00:49.000]and make that your monthly goal, like 30, 50 or even 100 words a month.
[00:56.000]Now, let's get to the tips.
[00:59.000]First, use spaced repetition flashcards.
[01:03.000]Flashcards are the most popular way to learn, review and master new words.
[01:09.000]And more specifically, spaced repetition flashcards.
[01:13.000]That's because they have a proven learning method built in, spaced repetition.
[01:18.000]Spaced repetition simply means you repeat what you've learned over a spaced period of time,
[01:24.000]because that's the best way to retain things.
[01:27.000]Meaning, if you learn a word on day one, you see it again in two days,
[01:32.000]then in four days, in eight days and so on.
[01:36.000]The learning is spaced out over time,
[01:39.000]and the continued repetition helps push the word into your long-term memory,
[01:43.000]so you never forget it.
[01:46.000]And that's exactly what our spaced repetition flashcards do for you.
[01:50.000]You'll find them in the vocabulary menu on the site.
[01:53.000]Here, you can study the 100 core vocabulary, vocabulary from the lessons
[01:58.000]or our 2000 core vocabulary list.
[02:02.000]Second, immerse yourself in conversations and conversation lessons.
[02:08.000]Another powerful way to pick up new words and phrases is to immerse yourself in the language.
[02:15.000]That way, you'll always pick up new words.
[02:18.000]On top of that, you'll learn the words in the context of everyday conversations,
[02:23.000]instead of learning them one by one.
[02:25.000]So, if you're taking the lessons inside our system, in every lesson,
[02:31.000]you hear a conversation between native speakers.
[02:34.000]Then our teachers slow it down, explain every word and grammar rule,
[02:39.000]so that you understand it all.
[02:41.000]And that conversation is repeated three times in total,
[02:45.000]so you remember it better.
[02:47.000]So, you're not just listening to language that's way above your level and not understanding.
[02:53.000]You grow to understand it, because everything is explained right after.
[02:58.000]You can also listen to the dialogue tracks that give you just the conversation of that lesson
[03:03.000]without the translations, so you can immerse yourself and just listen.
[03:09.000]This is one of the best ways to expose yourself to conversation.
[03:13.000]Actually understand them, even if you don't understand anything at first,
[03:17.000]and reinforce all the words you've learned.
[03:21.000]On top of the lessons, you can also immerse yourself in the target language by
[03:26.000]watching TV shows and listening to music.
[03:29.000]But, unlike the lessons, you won't get the language explained,
[03:33.000]and this approach may be too hard for beginners.
[03:37.000]But, if you're at an upper intermediate level,
[03:40.000]or above where you can learn through context and understand most of it,
[03:44.000]then this method can work just as well.
[03:48.000]Third, read every day.
[03:51.000]How often do you read in your target language?
[03:54.000]Reading is another way you can immerse yourself in the language
[03:58.000]and boost your vocabulary, because you'll always come across new words.
[04:03.000]But, what should you read?
[04:05.000]And how do you find easy material for your level?
[04:08.000]Because, what's the point if it's too hard for you?
[04:11.000]With our program, you can find extensive reading books inside the lesson library.
[04:17.000]These are quick and easy books, from absolute beginner level up to intermediate,
[04:22.000]that you can finish in a few minutes.
[04:24.000]And extensive reading is simply a strategy where you read and finish
[04:29.000]as many books as possible.
[04:31.000]At the absolute beginner level,
[04:33.000]these are simple one or two sentence per page books,
[04:36.000]making it easy for you to read through and pick up new words.
[04:40.000]Another way to memorize words fast is by learning songs in your target language.
[04:46.000]You can make a monthly goal to memorize one to three songs you like
[04:50.000]in your target language.
[04:52.000]Just search for the lyrics to a song you like,
[04:55.000]and as you listen to the song, read the lyrics.
[04:58.000]This can help you connect the sounds you're hearing
[05:01.000]with the characters or the letters you're reading.
[05:04.000]Remember, the key is to find a fun way to read every day.
[05:08.000]This will help you improve your vocabulary.
[05:12.000]Fourth, get quizzed on vocabulary regularly.
[05:16.000]I know, no one likes quizzes and tests after experiencing them in school.
[05:21.000]But, getting tested on what you've learned is actually one of the best ways
[05:27.000]to remember what you learn and improve your memory.
[05:31.000]This is a proven learning method called Active Recall.
[05:35.000]All it means is when you try to remember something,
[05:39.000]you actually start to remember it better.
[05:41.000]So, if you're trying to remember the meaning of a word on a test,
[05:45.000]that's when your memory gets stronger.
[05:48.000]That's when you're flexing your brain muscles, or rather, neurons.
[05:52.000]So, how can you do it?
[05:55.000]If you're using the flashcards that I mentioned earlier, flashcards do that for you.
[06:00.000]They test you on the meanings of the words.
[06:03.000]You can flip the card over to see if you got the word correct or not.
[06:07.000]So, be sure to use flashcards.
[06:12.000]Next, if you're taking the lessons and following the learning pathway in our program,
[06:17.000]you'll automatically get tested after every few lessons.
[06:21.000]Just follow the pathway, take the lessons, and testing is done for you.
[06:26.000]You'll get multiple choice assessments after every few lessons
[06:30.000]that test you on the words and grammar you learned.
[06:33.000]That way, you won't forget what you've learned as you make your way down the pathway.
[06:39.000]Fifth, get new vocabulary and phrases sent to you automatically.
[06:44.000]The lazy way to learn words.
[06:47.000]So far, all of the methods mentioned are extremely powerful at helping you learn new words.
[06:54.000]But they all require work.
[06:57.000]And if you're lazy, busy, or just new to language learning,
[07:02.000]chances are, there will be days when you won't want to drill flashcards or read.
[07:07.000]And that's a problem, because language learning needs to become an automatic habit.
[07:12.000]And if you're not doing it automatically, without thinking,
[07:16.000]you'll forever struggle with trying to learn.
[07:19.000]The good news is that you can get new words and phrases sent to you automatically every day,
[07:25.000]so that you don't have to lift a finger and boost your vocabulary in the process.
[07:30.000]And you can do that with our free Word of the Day service,
[07:34.000]where every day we email you a new word along with sample sentences.
[07:39.000]This is the easiest and the laziest way to boost your vocabulary,
[07:44.000]and it takes less than a minute.
[07:46.000]Because all you have to do is glance at the word, and you're done.
[07:51.000]But the best part is you automatically get new words every single day,
[07:56.000]so that your vocabulary is always improving.
[08:00.000]The system is automatic.
[08:02.000]All you have to do is join it.
[08:04.000]And, as a side bonus, it helps you create a language learning habit,
[08:08.000]because you're automatically learning new words.
[08:12.000]On top of that, you'll also get timely vocab and phrase lists every week via email.
[08:18.000]If it's wintertime, you'll get winter-related words and phrases.
[08:22.000]If Halloween is coming up, you'll get words for Halloween.
[08:26.000]It's that simple.
[08:27.000]Again, all of this is done and sent automatically, if you're a member.
[08:32.000]That way, you don't have to go chasing down material
[08:35.000]or trying to figure out what to do and how to learn.
[08:39.000]So, to recap, use flashcards.
[08:43.000]Immerse yourself in conversations and conversation lessons.
[08:48.000]Read every day.
[08:50.000]Get quizzed on vocabulary regularly.
[08:54.000]Get new words sent to you automatically.
[08:58.000]These tips are fun and effective ways to help you reach your vocabulary goals a bit faster.
