Problem
How do I learn new words in foreign languages?
Answer
Just keep learning new words every day. Some will need repeating three times, or many times before they stick. Others will click and stick the first time you hear them. Look at these examples below.
Italian - English
1 antichi
2 culturale
3 finale
4 globale
5 negativa
6 positiva
7 recente
8 tradizionale
English - Italian
Story
I keep lists of words. In France I was asked by a french boy, Do you like fish. I replied, yes, especially mackerel (maquerau). It's almost the same word. He didn't know that. He was really impressed by my command of French.
Tips
