1
learning vocabulary
2
and memorizing vocabulary are not the same thing i will tell
3
you why at the end of the video a lot of you ask me how can i memorize vocabulary
4
and what is the most effective way to learn words
5
and actually use it when i'm speaking
6
so this is a comprehensive video on how to learn
7
and memorize vocabulary we'll have three parts first i will tell
8
you who actually needs to memorize vocabulary yes maybe you don't need
9
and if you do secondly what's the most effective way to do it what kind of books you should choose
10
and how to use the words in your actual speaking after learning them still this video can be long
11
but trust me it's worth the time
12
so let's get started who needs vocabulary basically we go through three different phases
13
when we are learning english the first one is beginner phase at this point we're all new to the language
14
and we definitely need vocabulary because that's the basics for sentences
15
and conversations if you're a beginner you can't hold a conversation you can't understand people
16
or you can't order food when you go abroad you should definitely memorize vocabulary
17
and then we enter the second phase the second one is the intermediate level
18
which means you can roughly understand easy conversations handle with people speak in english
19
and buy something in english etc now
20
if you just want to keep your english at this level
21
you don't need to memorize vocabulary anymore i just say a waste of time
22
because you don't need to pass an exam you don't need to pass GRE
23
or IELTS so what you need is to maintain your level right now
24
and use the vocabulary you've already mastered and the third one is advanced level
25
if you want to become an advanced learner especially
26
if you need English to be your working language to live abroad
27
or to do academic research I mean and we will include exams in this part too like TOEFL,
28
IELTS or any kind of professional English level test then vocabulary is important
29
so you see not everybody needs as much as vocabulary so
30
if you don't want english to be at an advanced level the easy vocabulary you already have is enough
31
so for those who really do need to memorize
32
or learn vocabulary i say the first thing for you is to learn the roots
33
and the fixes rules of the word including the prefixes
34
and suffixes is important i can say these two things totally
35
change the way i learn english the moment i feel like i got all secrets of learning english was
36
when i started learning roots and affixes so the first thing is
37
that if you are going to take an exam choose a vocabulary book
38
that includes explanations of roots and affixes
39
if you don't want a physical book it's all right you
40
can use ai every time you ask ai about a word just to let it explain the root
41
and affixes for you you will understand why they use this word
42
and how the word is constructed
43
and secondly i will share a website i've been using for
44
years is called the online etymology dictionary it sounds a little bit professional
45
but actually it's interesting it tells you whether a word comes from old english
46
or from greek etc every time it's like you're reading a novel you're reading the stories of the words
47
so you will remember them solidly at the very beginning of
48
this video i said there is a difference between memorizing words
49
and learning words right
50
so i will tell you why memorizing is putting the word into a brain mechanically
51
and will never extract it from a brain afterwards
52
but learning vocabulary means you actually put it into practice into
53
a reality learning is like you learn from a road sign
54
when you are driving you learn
55
while reading an english book you learn from watching english documentary
56
you learn from an apple launch event you learn from films etc
57
but memorizing is like you painfully crammed from a book
58
so how can we actually use vocabulary that we painfully memorize from books right
59
so the most important thing is learn vocabulary
60
and after learning you need to make sentences
61
and in the next part of this video i will tell
62
you how to actually do it put what you've already learned into practice
63
so i learned french as my second foreign language
64
and each time i learn a new word i use it
65
to construct sentences by myself for example i think the very first word i learned in french was étudiant
66
which means student and i'd make up sentences myself like je suis étudiant um etc
67
so see i change the subject change every element
68
that can be changed in this sentence to make different sentences
69
and consolidate this structure or this word
70
and it's the same for english for example say uh you've
71
learned the word navigate from a youtuber's vlog the best thing
72
for you is not to like put it there let it be
73
but to use it in your own life immediately
74
because navigate doesn't have an i would say equivalent actually equivalent
75
in chinese it means we don't really know the scenario to use it in our daily life
76
so you need to create sentences
77
and scenarios by yourself how find anyone around you your family
78
members your brother your mom your friends think about something
79
that happened to them and try to put this word into their life
80
and experience like for example my husband is trying to navigate
81
his career my brother is trying to navigate his academic years
82
it is hard for me to navigate the connections between people
83
see all of the sentences come from your real life from people around you
84
and you can talk to ai to check whether the sentences you made are correct
85
so that's basically how i learned vocabulary you literally make your family members
86
or friends the character of your sentence the character of your little drama
87
so all in all i would say vocabulary is important although it's not important for everybody
88
and also i don't think vocabulary is something
89
that you can flex with like having memorized all the jury
90
words doesn't mean you have a very advanced english level and also i've never thought the amount of vocabulary is what matters.
91
Actually, it is the ability to use what you've learned that matters most.

| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | you've already mastered · you've already learned · i've never thought |
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | is constructed · is called · can be changed |
Pronuncia a cui fare attenzione
Chi parla usa 26 contrazioni e forme ridotte, come don't, you've, can't. Pronunciale nella forma breve, così come le senti.

- Parole lunghe — attenzione all’accento: vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, examination /ɪɡˌzæm.ɪˈneɪ.ʃən/, explanation /ˌɛkspləˈneɪʃən/, comprehensive /ˌkɑm.pɹəˈhɛn.sɪv/, documentary /ˌdɒk.jʊˈmɛn.tɹi/

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
