This method is proposed for the English language but can of course be applied in any language.
It is a well known fact that a person with a rich and varied vocabulary can express himself much more efficiently than a person with very little vocabulary.
First, to increase your vocabulary there’s nothing better than reading. It may be books, novels, comics, newspapers, everything that you like to read.

Another way to build up your vocabulary is by watching TV or movies in original version. You will be able to replay if you did not understand some word. You will also be able to display the caption if all the words are hard to understand.

The last two methods should already help you increase your vocabulary!
But yet, despite reading or watching movies, it is sometimes difficult to remember a word that we disovered a few days earlier.
Then, how to remember more words?

 Help to correct

To tackle this problem we propose three techniques:
1. Write down the words and their meaning in a notebook as soon as you meet them. Every day simply select one or two words from the notebook and build phrases with those words.

2. Write down the words and their meaning in a notebook. Every night before falling asleep, read several pages of your notebook. Don't worry, it goes fast! Sometimes it's better to read words regularly than trying to memorize them.

3. Our last method is to write a new word on a piece of paper about 8X5 cm. Fold it in half. On the front part, note the word to learn and, on the other side, note its meaning. Store each piece of paper in a box we will name "box number 1".

Every day before going to work or go to school, you pick a few words in the box 1. Slip them into your pocket or wallet and simply look at them during the day until they are well learned. At the end of the day, back at home, put those papers in box number 2. Once box number 1 is empty start again with box number 2. Before the word is remembered you will need to have seen it many times !

We hope that with these 3 techniques, you build your vocabulary. Imagine the number of words learned in a year if we learn 5 words a day? It is rather encouraging!
