How Can I Increase My Vocabulary？
I chatted with Amy and Tina these days.They gave me much help in learning English.
My English is poor and my vocabylary is limited,so when I chatted with Amy and Tina,I always couldn't express my meanings to them in English.I could only translate them using Google or Baidu into English.I had made many mistakes,but they were so intelligent that they could understand what I wanted to express.

How Can I Increase My Vocabulary？
These days, I chat with Amy and Tina quite often.They gave me much help in learning English.My English is poor and my vocabulary is limited, so when I chatted with Amy and Tina, I couldn't always express what I wanted to say to them in English. I could only use Google or Baidu to translate Chinese into English. I made many mistakes, but they were so intelligent that they could understand what I wanted to express.
Now I want to know how can I increase my vocabulary. By learning by rote? Or by reading a lot?
Please give me some useful suggestions. Thank you.

I thought that was what you did when you made some mistakes, To increase your vocabulary, I agree with what connie said, ^^ You can also stick those flash cards around your house the more you see the words the more likely you will remember them.

I'm taking a course on English for academic purposes and one of the things we learned is that while students know how to look up a word, they often do not have an organized system to remember the definitions. One way you can increase your vocabulary is through vocabulary flash cards.
First, on the front of the card, write down the word you want to learn, along with its part of speech, pronunciation, and related words. You can also put a short translation in Chinese on the front.
On the back, write down the sentence where you first encountered the word. Then write the dictionary definition and the sample sentence from the dictionary. Make sure you select the correct definition in the dictionary. Finally, you use that word to write a sentence of your own. If I know other ways of improving your vocabulary, I will let you know.
