Hi, learning or rather enhancing your vocabulary is a never ending task. I would suggest you to read newspaper everyday and side by side find the meanings of the words that you already didn't know. Write them in a paper. Watch english channels for atleast 1 hour and i am sure you will get some words from there as well. At the end of the day, go back to these all words you noted down and paste them right in front of your bed. Keep this sheet there for 7 days and read them each time you have a glance at them. I am sure this will help you. read less

I know two well proven methods for improving your vocabulary. First of all, find synonyms of ten words you are already aware of and then frame a fictional story with the help of these synonyms so that you can retain them in your memory. Actually we read dictionary learn the words but problem is we don't remember these words when time comes to use rich vocabulary. Isn't it true? Secondly, learn ten words which are new to them and then again frame a small story with the help of these words. You must try this. read less
