Learning a language is impossible without memorizing new words. But besides the banal and boring cramming, there are many simple, and most importantly - effective ways learn unfamiliar words.

First you need to figure out exactly how you best perceive information. There is a small but very important checklist for this. If you are an auditory person, then the "read the notebook" method will work much worse for you than the "listen to the list of words to the text" method. And you can not even think about it and long and hard, to the bitter end and feeling your own worthlessness, look into this stupid notebook and not understand why nothing is remembered!

Traditional Methods

Yartsev method (visuals)

We take a notebook. We write out the word - translation in 2-3 columns. We give a number of synonyms \ antonyms \ examples. From time to time we read lists, we just read, we don’t crammed anything.

I don’t know how it works, but, for example, I didn’t crammed German, but just read a notebook from time to time. The teacher did not arrange dictations, he never checked us against the lists. And I still, after many years, remember a bunch of words.

It turns out that you do not strain, do not try to pour 100 words into yourself in 30 minutes, just systematically, from time to time you refresh the material. But you should immediately warn that these words should be found in textbooks, articles, i.e. you must, in addition to reading the notebook, somehow activate them.

Card Method

The second popular way. We take and cut a bunch of cards or buy square blocks of note paper. On one side we write the word, on the other - the translation. For advanced users, we indicate examples. We drive the cards in a circle, putting aside those that we know well. From time to time we repeat the past, in order to refresh. Of the minuses - if there are a lot of words and little time, you will spend a lot of time creating the cards themselves.

For fun, you can sort them into piles of 10 pieces. different places apartments, from time to time to stumble upon them and repeat. Audials to this method must necessarily add speaking aloud. Cards are great for children, this can be turned into an interesting game.

prescribing method

Classics of the genre. You take a word and write it many, many times. Works great for Chinese characters. Minus - melancholy green. But the method has been tested for centuries.

Half page method

This is one of my favorite ways. You bend the sheet in half, write a word from one edge, with reverse side- translation. You can check yourself quickly. For me, as a visual, it works well, because. I easily remember in which part of the sheet a given word was written. Minus - you get used to a certain word order.

Method "Interior Designer"

If you learn some specific vocabulary that surrounds you, you can make original “labels” everywhere - stick stickers with the names of objects. You can also stick on the monitor the most nasty words that do not want to be remembered. The advantage of this method is that it is fun. Minus - the brain can begin to ignore all these pieces of paper, and then they will hang somewhere for a long time.

Optimization methods

Grammar grouping method

If you have a large list of words, the worst thing you can do with it is to learn it haphazardly. It can and should be processed and grouped. For example, first you write out verbs, and write them out not in a row, but group them according to the type of endings, or write out masculine nouns, then feminine and separately exceptions that do not fall into these lists.

Thus, since most of the words we do not apply to exceptions, you begin to see the logic of the language and memorize words in conjunction with their like.

Meaningful grouping method

You write out and memorize the word and its synonym/antonym right away. This is true for both beginners and advanced. So you learned the word “good”, find out right away how it will be “bad”. And if you still remember "excellent, so-so, disgusting", then you will greatly enrich your lexicon.

Method for studying single-root words

We take words, group them around the root, for example, “deed / do / done”, and learn several parts of speech with the same root at once.

Etymological method

Works well for those who have learned multiple languages. When you study several languages within the same language branch, you start to see similar roots. This actually comes with experience, and there is no need to learn a huge amount of words again. At some point, you just already know enough. And if I understand that this word does not categorically tell me anything, I climb into the etymological dictionary and get to the bottom of where it came from. While I do this, I remember it.

chains of words

You take a list of words that you need to learn, and make up a story (even if it’s crazy) from them. So you will learn not 30 words, but 5 sentences of 6 words each. If you approach this matter creatively, you can have fun and usefully spend time.

Ways for those who do not like old-fashioned methods

Spaced Repetition (spaced repetitions)

Memory retention technique, which consists in repeating what has been learned educational material at fixed, ever-increasing intervals. In fact, you install an application on your phone, and the program will automatically show you the words in the specified order and with the desired frequency. You can use both ready-made lists of words, and create your own.

Pros: capitally crashes into memory.

Cons: takes a lot of time. If you have already memorized the word, it will still pop up from time to time in some programs.

In Memrise, you can choose from ready-made lists of words or create your own. If the word is categorically not remembered, you can use special funny pictures, which are created by users using mnemonics techniques, or upload your own. Memrise also recently added a new option - you can not only hear the voice acting of a word, but watch a video of how people pronounce these words.

A service for working on written speech for those who have already mastered the basics of language practice. The user writes the text in the language being studied, after which the native speaker of the corresponding language takes to check the written text and makes his own corrections.

"Magic" Methods

Magic methods are very fond of luring various marketers and language gurus. Usually the essence of the methods is " secret techniques special services”, which, objectively speaking, are described in a pile of literature. And they ask for unhealthy sums of money.

mnemonics

Mnemonics is one of the most popular methods, the essence of which is to come up with funny and absurd associations to a word that you can’t remember. You take the floor and come up with some kind of associative image, which should be very bright. But in this image there should be a “key” to the memorized word.

Example: "grief" ("woe") - woe to a wounded tiger, vultures are circling over him.

For auditory

Rule #1 for you: Always speak out loud what you are learning. If you use cards, speak up. If you are reading a list, read it out loud. Listen to the words, this is the fastest way for you to remember them! Naturally, you will have to prescribe them, but the matter go faster than if you read and wrote silently.

listening to words

You can put audio recordings of word lists and repeat after the announcer. Usually in good textbooks a well-read list of words is given for the lesson. You can also listen to high-quality podcasts in which there is a detailed analysis of the dialogues.

Multiple repetition

A method similar to writing words in a row, rather tedious and boring, but effective - repeat out loud several times. There is an opinion that a word can be considered learned if you have used it 5 times in context. So try to bring 5 different examples the use of this word. Naturally, out loud. You can fix it by writing it down.

Methods for those who absolutely do not want to work with lists

Reading (lots of reading)

If the level is high enough and there is no urgent need to expand the vocabulary, it is easiest to read a lot. You can mark new words and even write them out (this works best, but not everyone likes to do this). By reading, you learn to understand the meaning of the context, you are “saturated” with words, they themselves become your passive reserve. But reading usually does not help much to translate them into an asset, i.e., in order to progress in the language, you need to do something else besides reading.

Learn what is really needed

In one of my textbooks, the word "hoe" appeared in the vocabulary before the words "short and long" appeared. Do not learn "hoes" and any unnecessary garbage until you learn really relevant and vital vocabulary.

How to determine relevance? There are many tutorials and lists from the 1000 Most Common Words series. First we learn frequency, then - "hoes", not earlier. If you have not yet learned to count and do not know pronouns, it is too early for you to learn colors, no matter how much you want to.

Get creative with the process

If everything infuriates you, words do not fit into your head and you want to quickly close these lists, experiment. Drawings help someone, someone walks around the apartment and recites aloud, someone communicates with his cat. If you are interested in something, do not be lazy to climb into the dictionary. Study what is close to you. Don't dwell on methods that don't work.

Not only schoolchildren and students are faced with the problem of the need to memorize a large amount of texts, but also people various professions: lawyers, doctors, actors, etc. However, most people are used to memorizing texts with the help of ordinary cramming and endless repetition of textual material that flies out of their heads the next day. We will show you how to quickly learn the text, but at the same time meaningfully and for a long time.

How actors remember text

If you need to learn how to quickly memorize a text, you should take advantage of the experience of actors who have to memorize scripts for films and theater performances almost verbatim. Each of them has their own ways of remembering information that help them cope with this task, so psychologists have received generalized research results on this issue and found out what helps actors learn the text quickly and effectively.

Division into fragments

The first thing anyone who wants to quickly learn a text should do is read the material once in its entirety and then divide it into parts. It is important that they have a complete thought and be easy to remember. It is most effective to divide each paragraph into sentences.

Text grouping

After you have divided the text into parts and learned the first sentence, start grouping the material. Learn the first and second sentences. Having coped with this, memorize the first, second and third. Continue combining sentences until you have learned the first block - this could be an introduction or first appearance on stage, etc. Then do this again, adding even larger fragments together, for example, the first and second paragraphs.

Continue grouping with the enlargement of parts until the entire text is learned.

Quality checking

Each stage of memorizing the material should be accompanied by checking the text without peeping. This allows you to highlight those fragments that are difficult to work with, so that later you can focus more on them. In addition, this stage will help you consolidate what you have learned in your memory.

Immersion in context

If you have the opportunity to learn the text in the exact setting where the performance will take place, then be sure to use it. So, for example, you can link parts of the text you speak with the movements performed by you or your partners on stage, interaction with props and scenery, which will make it easier to quickly learn the text.

Automatic memory

Although the main goal is the conscious memorization of the material, you can use another mechanism of our memory, which allows us to automatically reproduce the memorized text. Thus, for example, some people memorize prayers or texts that often have to be repeated on duty, for example, the speech of a flight attendant. Although this performance is not always heartfelt and emotional, it allows you to remember the material well even in stressful situations.

Delu - time

A very important role in memorization is played by the time spent not only on studying, but also on rest. Many people can't focus effectively on material for more than forty minutes, so don't wait until you get tired and force yourself to quickly learn a text in one sitting. Take a break, go for a walk, or change activities for a while.

Do not forget about the regular full-fledged 7-8-hour sleep. Although the memorization and reproduction of information occurs during wakefulness, its processing continues even in a dream. But the lack of sleep leads to stress, as well as to the deterioration of memory and performance.

The four-step method, or the OVOD method

There is another way to learn how to memorize a large text quickly and efficiently. Use one of the most effective methods of memorizing texts called OVOD, which consists of four stages: the Main idea, attentive reading, review and fine-tuning. It allows you to quickly learn the text - in just 4 repetitions. OVOD differs from unsystematic memorization and repetition by a meaningful, analytical approach to the text. So:

First of all, you need to read the text and highlight the main idea in it. Do not try to immediately memorize it from beginning to end, focus your attention only on what reveals the main idea of the material. You can write down these thoughts in the form of abstracts. When the reading is finished, put the text aside and try to verbally reproduce what you have read.

Next, you should read the text a second time, more carefully, taking into account all the details of the narrative. Remember the main idea of the text and try to connect it in your mind with the details that you have highlighted just now. How do they help develop the main idea, what do they add to the story? Now try to repeat the text considering and main idea, and details.

The review of the text is to create an approximate plan for reading. Read the material from the end and ask yourself questions about the points in your plan. They will help you remember what information is contained in each part of the text.

Fine-tuning means the end of work on the text, bringing the process of memorization to the end. Remembering the text, go from the general to the specific: start with the main ideas, then supplement them with details. Slowly repeat the text aloud, if possible, ask someone to check you. Do not peek under any circumstances. If you forgot something, then try to analyze this segment, understand why you missed it.

After a few hours, repeat what you learned again. If necessary, fill in the gaps that appear by again using this four-step scheme.

How to learn text as quickly and efficiently as possible

If you need to learn the text as quickly as possible and not necessarily verbatim, then this method will help you.

Break the material down into meaningful phrases or sentences. Determine the main meaning of each fragment.
Now characterize each of the fragments with a small phrase, if possible, with one word, with which you associate each specific block. The main thing is to create a memorable image.
The last step is to memorize a sequence of images that will allow you to remember the contents of the text step by step.

An example of the method of non-verbatim memorization

Let's see how this method works on the example of this passage:

It remains a paradox that people in our time receive an excellent education, but they cannot boast of a great mind, they have a fairly broad knowledge, but they are not always able to assess the situation well. We have many experts, but there are even more problems, medicine is one of the best, but the majority cannot boast of health either.

Now let's divide this passage into fragments-phrases and select our vivid image for each:

It remains a paradox that people in our time receive an excellent education, but cannot boast of a great mind ( Mental hospital patient holding a red diploma). We have many experts, but there are even more pressing problems ( Man in business suit holding a screwdriver). Medicine is one of the best, but most cannot boast of health either ( The doctor in a dressing gown lies with a plaster cast).

As a result, you do not need to memorize the entire text at once, but remember only the following images associated with it:

Mentally ill with a red diploma.
Business man with a screwdriver.
Doctor in plaster.

To remember the sequence of images, combine them by inventing your own story, in which the first image will interact with the second, the second with the third, etc. Our example was small and introductory, so for a large text volume you will need more images. All this will take you less time than learning the text itself, and most importantly, thanks to vivid images, it will remain in your memory for a long time.

And if you are interested in how to develop memory and learn poems by heart, then you can get acquainted with one interesting technique in the following video:

Take it, tell your friends!

How our memory works

Let's start with this very question.

The process of memorizing any information goes through three stages.

First - short term memory . Any data is delayed there for no more than a few minutes.
The data then moves to the second stage - intermediate memory. Here she can linger for a few days or a month.
The third and last stage is long-term memory . The information is always stored there. Even the things we think we have forgotten.

Therefore, in order to use the capabilities of your memory as efficiently as possible, you need to take this into account. Try to immediately translate everything you learn into intermediate memory. And to keep the information with you as long as possible, from time to time revision it and shift it to the departments of long-term memory.

10 ways to remember text

Tell someone else.

Retell what you read - and remember it 4 times faster. The likelihood that you will master a large text much faster if you read and retell it to another person is much higher. When you tell something, the neurons in your brain work much more efficiently, and you instantly transfer everything that you have learned to the intermediate department.

Work on the principle of 20/5 or 45/15.

Your brain cannot learn something indefinitely - it needs to be given breaks. Try on yourself the practice of teaching for 20 minutes and resting for 5 minutes; or study for 45 minutes and rest for 15. Your brain will get used to such uniform loads and will work as productively as possible, and you can easily learn even the most complex information.

Use associative thinking.

What you already know is yours the best weapon in learning. Draw associations and analogies with the knowledge that is already stored on the shelves of your brain. This will help you not only remember everything quickly, but also then, if necessary, remember much faster.

Highlight key points in the text with a marker.

Of course, if the text is in a textbook, this is not necessary. But often, these are printouts, photocopies, with which this method will be just great! I did it myself when I was at university - it helped a lot! Believe me, as soon as you do this, everything unnecessary will disappear and will not interfere, and everything you need will "stick" to your memory and will glow in it as brightly as the marker you worked with! Of course, for this you need to have the skill of finding important supporting thoughts in the text. Practice and you will succeed!

Read the text with expression or using different pitches of voice.

In other words, you can just play around pretending to be an actor (unless you're really an actor :-)). Read the text in a whisper, then in a low voice, then in a thin mouse voice ... Change intonations - from joyful tones to sad and melancholy. In general, feel what you are reading! Believe me, sometimes it becomes the only one the right way to fast memorization of the text.

Don't sit in one place.

Scientists have proven that if, when trying to learn something, you will not just sit at the table over a book, but, for example, walk around the room, then you can learn a text or a poem much faster.
Once we discussed this issue with my student. Her biology teacher noted more than once that during memorization it is best to clean the house, put something in its place, or just walk around. But in a very rare cases sit still.

The person who never ceases to amaze me in terms of memory development is Stanislav Matveev. He got into the Guinness Book of Records thanks to his methods and perseverance. And now Stanislav shares his knowledge with people, helping them achieve their goals.

Learn in the morning.

It doesn't matter if you are the most "lark" of all larks or a seasoned owl, your brain still remembers information best in the morning or when you just woke up. Of course, there are rare exceptions when human biological rhythms are most active at night. But, nevertheless, trying to remember something before going to bed can not only have no effect, but also ruin your sleep.

Tired - change the situation.

The main mistake of many is to try to teach without any rest. I remember myself during the sessions. I allocated myself two hours to study in the morning, then I went to training. She returned home and taught for another 2 hours. I constantly diluted my study hours with other classes. And I have always been surprised by the people who, during session did not see friends, did not go anywhere for a walk, but simply closed in the house. So my you friendly advice- change the environment and give yourself a rest.

Use the possibilities of your brain.

You probably know how you get the best memory. If it’s enough for you to listen to a lecture so that you can retell everything without hesitation, you definitely have a type of memorization based on perception audio information.

For example, I absorb information best if I write it down. It's hard for me to remember something. When I was studying at the university, I wrote notes, and I made all important notes in writing. When I had to remember something during the exam, my notes instantly popped up before my eyes.

So use your strong side in memorization. Let it sometimes take a little longer, but you will be sure of the result.

In any incomprehensible situation - go to bed.

If nothing comes to mind, go to bed. When you sleep, all the information that enters your brain, let's say, is laid out on the shelves of the long-term department. And in general, never try to learn anything without getting enough sleep. At this moment, your brain is busy only keeping you awake, and there simply aren’t enough resources to remember something.

On this moment there are many methods, techniques and a wide variety of books to develop your memory and be able to remember tons of information. You can watch videos or read books to develop your memory skills. Memory is like a muscle - you just need to practice a lot.

A great way for regular memory training, which I recently discovered for myself - online service « Brain Fitness". I spoke in detail about him and our successes with my daughter.

Here, my dear, are the main ways you can easily memorize large text. But I can say one thing: all this works individually for each person. I advise you to try and analyze what you do best.

January 23, 2014
Good afternoon, Dear friends! When I was preparing for this post, it turned out that there are much more areas in which you need to quickly memorize something than I thought, so I split the article into two parts. Who knows, maybe there will be a third one.

The topic is actually very interesting. I got into experimenting with memory in high school when I was already active on the Internet, and I didn’t have much time to study subjects. Having stumbled upon (literally) hundreds of books on the Internet, I already sifted out any slag by title, like “How to develop super memory in a day” or “ Fast way learn a school course in one week. Leaving 8-10 pieces, I began to study them, writing out especially valuable thoughts and practical exercises to memorize.

For me, practice is very important, because in theory you can really do anything, but putting it into practice is quite problematic. Therefore, I try to check any advice and recommendations on my own skin. It turns out quite interesting, and a lot of new skills are being recruited.

I try to judge as objectively as possible, but this does not mean that I am declaring the ultimate truth. I recommend only what helped me and you, I hope it will help you too.

Fundamental principles

There are basic principles that will help your brain remember information much more efficiently. It doesn't matter if you want to know how to learn a poem fast or just interested in ways of remembering.

Maximum concentration;

Physical state;

Brightness of images;

Motivation;

Understanding;

Just from the names, you can figure out up to 90% of the whole essence of each principle, but let's look at each item in more detail.

Don't get distracted while learning.

It seems to me that any person can confirm that the more focused on the task, the faster you can get the result. There are even many techniques that can improve this process, but we will talk about this in the following articles, if you don’t want to miss it, subscribe (the form at the bottom of the article).

Our brain is designed in such a way that the fewer tasks we perform, the more effective the result will be. No wonder our head is often compared to a computer. By limiting the number of tasks performed to one or two, you can get a truly incredible result. It is best to find a quiet room where no one will distract you, turn off all irritants and start exercising.

Breathing techniques and personal attitudes will also help you quickly concentrate. Make 10 deep breaths, during which repeat to yourself something like "I can learn everything, quickly and not stressfully." As soon as you have taken the last breath, immediately begin to memorize the necessary material.

Concentration will help you in many areas of life. I already talked about this in the article "". This is a very valuable skill that needs to be constantly trained.

Have a good rest.

If you feel unwell, headache or you want to sleep terribly, then you are unlikely to learn the material quickly. Firstly, you will be constantly distracted by your sores, and this already contradicts the first principle. Secondly, ailments affect the efficiency of the body as a whole. So, if you want to be productively engaged in mental activity, you will have to get rid of these problems.

In most cases, regular sleep will help. It will allow your body to relax, your brain to recover a bit, and you can start learning with full energy. As far as I remember, this advice was given by one of the authors of the books when asked by students about how to quickly learn English (German, Italian, French) or some other language. Half an hour of sleep will allow you to increase efficiency by 2-3 times. As a result, you can do more in less time.

Come up with bright images.

We remember what seems unusual to us and, as a rule, lose sight of what we are used to seeing every day. Can you remember what colors the traffic lights had today on the route you take every day? Hardly. But if on the way to work / study you saw a tiger playing with a huge ball, you would surely remember it for the rest of your life. So why not use this feature of our brain to your advantage?

Let's say you wondered how to quickly learn the verse "Borodino". As we know, this poem literally consists of vivid images and action. This greatly simplifies our task. Just while reading, try to imagine as vividly as possible the pictures that Lermontov describes. Only this exercise will increase the efficiency of memorization at times, but imagine what will happen if you use all the principles?

You must understand why you are learning this material.

The main problem of schoolchildren and students is that they do not understand at all what they are studying for. That is why many people are able to read one line 10 times and not remember anything. If a person is completely confident in the need for the material being studied, then he will be able to master it simply by running his eyes. For example, if you were offered to quickly learn chords or instructions for a million dollars, then you would certainly be able to do it almost instantly.

The secret is that motivation really exists. And always. A poem can be taught simply to develop memory or to join the art. You can learn Japanese to watch anime in the original or to safely leave for this eastern country. And you need to memorize definitions for better assimilation of the subject or successful passing of the exam. It is only important to find motivation and really believe in it. It is not difficult to do this.

You must understand the information you are teaching.

The material, which, probably, was composed by aliens, you will learn for a very long time. And you will most likely forget it in a few hours. There is a real relationship between comprehension and memorization speed. Therefore, before memorizing the definition, try to get a good grasp of the essence of what you are reading about. Then, perhaps, you will not have to look for information about how to learn quickly some information.

I'll start with perhaps the most common application of rapid memorization - poems. Personally, I love poetry very much (I remember that I even took 3rd place in the region in the Olympiad), but I always had problems with memorizing them. School was the first place where I started to be interested in How you can quickly learn a verse. I remember it was Pushkin's poem "The sky covers the sky with mist ...".

In general, in any field, in addition to the fundamental principles, there are “chips”, the use of which allows you to achieve weighty results in memorizing. Literary poetry is no exception. I recommend using the technique that I used myself.

Read the poem several times, delve into its meaning, feel its essence. This is very important, do you remember the fifth principle? From an aesthetic point of view, this is also very important, since you will get something more than an A in literature, you will be able to enjoy truly great words, and this is worth a lot.

After that, copy the work on a piece of paper. Be sure to do it by hand. You can show your imagination and somehow embellish the lines. Not in the sense of changing words, but in the sense of drawing some kind of drawing in the theme or depicting an exquisite capital letter. Imagine that you are writing this poem yourself.

Try to hum the motive. Have you noticed at least once that songs are remembered very simply. Sometimes it is enough to listen 1-2 times to remember 90% of the song. It's all about melody. As a rule, poems also have their own melody, but it is not so pronounced. Come up with your own motive and start humming the poem. This will make it even more memorable.

Start learning quickly. That is, read the stanza once and try to retell it. Even if you don’t remember a word, don’t peek for at least a minute. Put your brains to work. This will allow you to develop powerful neural connections, and you will remember these words for a much longer period.

Do not try to repeat all the time, it is better to learn each quatrain separately, and then try to repeat the entire poem in full. Yes, it is more difficult, but the result is achieved faster and lasts longer.

To understand how to quickly learn literature, work with the author's biography. Yes, it will take you more time (irony), but you will better understand the subject and be able to show really high-quality knowledge.

Repeat the verse regularly. It is better to study a little, but every day, than all at once and in one evening. You can spend a little more time on the first day and try to remember as much as possible, and then repeat the poem 2-3 times a day. In total, it will take less time, and it will be much easier for you.

It’s even easier with fables, since the images are simple and understandable, and they are easier to remember, so it won’t be much of a problem.

Knowledge of a foreign language carries great prospects, so its study is now gaining simply colossal volumes. Almost everyone has the opportunity to get an education now, but some learn the language for years, and some have an excellent command of it in a few months. What's the secret?

The two main ingredients in the recipe for success are practice and consistency. If everything is clear with the first points (the more often and more regularly you study, the better you speak a foreign language), then you will have to deal with the second in more detail. The more complete the incoming information and the more diverse it is, the better the material is absorbed. In the case of a foreign language, this is a great chance to quickly master the necessary material.

Reading, writing, listening, speaking are the four areas in which you have to develop. If you combine them all together, the effect will be simply unimaginable. Of course, if you do not know the language at all, then first you will need to learn the alphabet, basic words and irregular verbs, and only then move on to systematic studies, although you can start talking right away.

Read at least one page of text in a foreign language every day. Try not to look into the dictionary. This advice is given to anyone who wants to know how to learn english fast and easy. I advise you to read books on the method of Ilya Frank. It is advisable to do this out loud. They can be easily found on the Internet.

Set yourself a bar in the minimum number of words. It doesn't matter if it's Chinese, French or German you are going to teach. Let's say it will be 5 words a day. In a year, you will know 1780 words, and this is already enough to speak normally with native speakers. The most important thing here is regularity, do not pause even on the busiest days. Moreover, learning five words is a matter of ten minutes. The LinguoLeo service can be a great help.

Download the audio lessons and start learning from them. You will not only be able to remember stable constructions, but also understand how to pronounce this or that word correctly. This is important if foreign language needed for communication.

Be sure to buy a grammar book, learn the rules and do the exercises. Of course, if you do not plan to seriously master the language, you are unlikely to need this, but grammar will allow you to better understand the structure and become truly educated. In addition, it will be easier for you to express your thoughts yourself.

By the way, in order to quickly learn English words, do not try to memorize them. Better imagine what this word looks like (for example, apple - apple) and say it out loud English name. This way you will memorize the word much faster and be able to use it without rummaging through your memory. And to understand how to quickly learn English verbs - find songs on the Internet. There are not so few of them, and they memorize faster.

Of course, the tips above have been given in general terms so that you can understand the basic principles and ways quick memorization. In I will be more specific on the main areas of application of quick memorization, which will surely come in handy. Don't forget to subscribe for updates. Bye!
