    Very nice techniques to learn words and improve vocabulary. Thanks for this video. More important is to implement it. How to make these words part of my vocabulary?

      @@TheXarden55 Thanks for the answer. You taught around 20 words today. Do I have to use each of these 5 times? Even if I do that I am afraid if I will be able to use it after a week or two. Pl advise

      Our brains can only learn about 5 new words a day.

    Hi, i hope you're doing well!
    I've just read your channel's description.
    Sound really good!
    You wrote that you're also a language enthusiast! How come? and which languages you're interested in or you're currently lerning?

      Hi. I speak German and Russian as well as English. I have also studied Spanish and a tiny bit of Portuguese. I love learning about places, cultures, and people. Languages and understanding them, open us up to understanding how others think. The mechanical side of organic language development really intrigues me. I like to think about human development and how that can be seen in languages for example, most languages share many of the same irregular verbs and those verbs are more commonly used. They are older concepts. I think that grammar came after vocabulary as people began talking about more and more complex things. Go, for example, is nearly always irregular in the languages I have looked at but "walk" is regular. Thinking about irregular verbs and whether they are irregular in your language and whether they are old concepts helps anticipate an irregular verb. This is not a solid rule but I love finding tendencies in languages like this. It helps me see how similar all of us are.

      @TheXarden55 wow, großartig, tolle Einstellung, da bist du ja quasi die Ausnahmen in den vereinigten Staaten, die soviel Sprachen spricht, Hut ab!
      English macht es mir richtig schwer, ich kann kaum sprechen nichtmal banale Sachen, leider.

      @ Englisch kann ganz schwierig sein. Es ist organisch und die regeln haben so viele Ausnahme.
