NOTE

Words Hold the Key: Embrace Vocabulary for Learning

Vocabulary is the most critical component of language acquisition, reflecting the learner's activity level. Achieving a high word count fosters engagement and motivation, vital for effective learning. Different forms of the same word can be viewed as separate additions, as they offer varied functions, thus easily expanding one's vocabulary. Adding new words regularly not only combats the diminishing returns of familiarity but also satisfies the brain's need for novelty alongside repetition. The pursuit of new vocabulary enhances the overall learning experience, making it essential for success in mastering a language.
