Summary
In this episode, Thiago Alencar shares his personal strategy for acquiring and remembering new vocabulary in English. He emphasizes the importance of exposure to the language and activation through review and usage. Thiago introduces his approach of contextual usage, which focuses on understanding how words are used in real-life situations rather than just memorizing definitions. He provides practical tips for memorizing English words using this strategy, such as reading extensively, listening actively, writing with a purpose, speaking with confidence, and creating personal contexts. Thiago also suggests using online resources and focusing on collocations to enhance vocabulary building.
