The Importance of Activating Vocabulary

One key aspect for English learners is the activation of vocabulary. It's not just about remembering words and expressions, but rather transferring them to the active vocabulary box for regular use. The speaker reflects on their own English learning journey and notes the distinction between passive and active vocabulary. Passive vocabulary includes words that learners understand but don't often use, whereas active vocabulary consists of words they use regularly. The challenge for learners is to move words from the passive to the active vocabulary box, which can be achieved through deliberate repetition and practice.
