If you’d like to improve your English, one thing you can do is to build up your vocabulary In order to do this, you have to practice a lot I'm afraid there is not a short cut for this, but there are many effective ways First of all, you should read a lot You can rend short stories, comics, newspapers, magazines, etc depending on your English level As you read, you can try to guess the meanings of unknown words from the context of the sentence If you cannot, then look up the definition in a dictionary English to English dictionary should be your first choice and keep the translator as last
Another way of building vocabulary is Io watch movies in English which will also help
with pronunciation Try to be involved with the language us much as you can Keep a
vocabulary notebook and write down a few words each day Keep in mind that you have to
revise them regularly In my opinion, to communicate with people all you need is words Even
