What are some good tips for learning vocabulary in a foreign language?

In: Non-English Languages and Cultures, Learning Tips

Answer

You can learn a lot of vocabulary by flashcards. Here's another good way:

Say the word in the foreign language with the correct or as close to correct pronunciation as possible and repeat over and over. Then go back and forth from English to the Foreign language. Then close your eyes and in your head picture the thing that you are saying. Concentrate and keep on saying it in the foreign language.

Also: REVIEW!!! Review 20 minutes after you learned them and then another 20 minutes after that. Review every day. If you don't have time to learn more words, review. Also, review before you go to bed. It helps me to make flashcards to review words or phrases I need to work on. You can use flashcards at almost any time like waiting in line or on commercial while you're watching TV.
