Explore features3. Revisit The Words You Keep Losing
Focus on mistakes and weak words first so the vocabulary you almost remember gets the extra repetition it needs.
Start learning nowWhy readers forget useful words
Reading exposes you to strong vocabulary, but exposure alone is not enough. The best way to retain words from books is to save them in context, test recall later, and revisit the ones that still feel shaky.
Do not trust the dictionary moment
Looking up a word while reading helps comprehension, but the memory is often shallow. Save the word and come back to it later.
Keep the word tied to the book
Vocabulary is easier to remember when it stays connected to the sentence, scene, or chapter where you first met it.
Recall beats rereading
Short review sessions with flashcards and quizzes usually do more for retention than repeatedly glancing at the definition.
