105 Learning Journal #8

[Melody (Mengdong) Zhuang]

I have learned around 300 words in Korean. I learn them by using them in dialogues, listening to new words, repeating them often, and eventually memorizing and recite them. I have also used Byki software and Mango app to help me acquire new words. Byki software have testing mode which I use the digital flashcard to quiz myself and be able to check the answer later by flipping back the flashcard. Mango app forces users to repeat the new word multiple times in a lesson. My goal for vocabulary acquisition is to learn at least twenty new words each week. By complimenting with study apps, I think my goal is realistic.
