I am really not sure how many words I have learned in my target language, my best estimation is around forty or fifty maybe. Many of those words have to do with politics or just general nouns and adjectives that I was missing from my own vocabulary. I learned them through my learning plan in which I created a system in which I would keep looking up words that I describe as “gaps” in my sentences when I talk in Hebrew. I do not focus on writing those words down because it is their verbal sounds and situational positioning that I try to focus on. What I am trying to set up, is an efficient and realistic system for acquiring language based off of necessity. If I run through a word once but don’t come across it within the week/month/semester, then chances are I will not have a huge need to know it, but if another word keeps getting me stuck in my sentences then I give it special attention and make sure that it is fully learned.
