Try the different methods out. Do flashcards one day, write the words out the next day, draw pictures the next day, etc. See which method helps you retain the information for longer.

Question

I recited the words and I keep forgetting them fast what should I do?

Community Answer

Maybe you could make flashcard or take the word and compare to a word that sounds similar. For example, canal and shall. You could think oh shall then it is canal.That works for me. I hope it applies for you.
