How to build vocabulary in foreign languages

Have you learned foreign languages before?

If you have, I am sure you struggled to memorize words in the languages.

Every languages consists of words.

The more you memorize them, your language skills will be improved. 

However sometimes we can't be sure what we should do to memorize.

I am not a specialist of languages but just a learner, so I'd introduce how I memorize vocabularies to you.

At the beginning of language learning, I try to get a very basic wordbook or two.

I read it cover to cover, over and over again.

After I have read it over ten times, I became to know most of words in the word book.

If I want more improvement on the reading, I will read the same book more often.

How can't we memorize the words of a book after we have read the book over twenty to thirty times in a short period of time?

Maybe you may be bored to read the same book over and over again. 

If so, I suggest you to read many books or articles on the internet in languages you are learning.

Read them as many as you can.

You will meet same words in different contexts and memorize them gradually.

Just to read the same book is sometimes very hard, but if you use many books or articles to learn, you can keep your motivation to reading.

I read books in both ways depending on my mood.

Please try to keep the fact that you can memorize words you have met many times in your mind.

I hope you will be fully fluent in the language soon.
