Carry a dictionary at all times. Carrying a dictionary with you will save you a lot of time. 39

It can be an actual,physical dictionary, or a dictionary app on your phone— you just need to be able to consult it quickly whenever you need a word.

Watch, listen,read and write in your chosen language. Possibly the easiest thing you can do

is watch television shows or movies in the language you are trying to learn, 40 Besides,download podcasts or tune in to radio stations in your new language. This is a great way to immerse yourself in the language while you’re on the go.

A. Let’s get one thing clear. B. There are really no secrets. C. So get one as soon as possible! D. Connect with a native speaker.
