Wondering about “How to reapet new words?”
Hey my fans,
Continuing previous post, I made small test about articles a/an/the.

Not bad I think, I’ll make few more exercises to be sure and fluency in using.
Today I had to learn about fifty german words. Image
As always I learned them, but now I thinking about sense of this… A remember these for about week or two. I don’t often use german (in contrast to English), so I even don’t consolidate these… after month I propably forget all. Why? is it wasting time?I think yes. It’s natural – when I don’t use new words in sentences or just don’t repeat after some term.
So, to really well-use my time, or to just respect it, I should repeat some sets in designed periods of time. If we’re talking about time, there is a one nice thing to know. It’s called “curve of forgetting” and show us when we forget sth. For example, you learned fifty german words. After 1 hours you remember just half of it. After one day – 30% etc. So, this curve let us know when we should repeat sth to know this better and in longer period of time.
Backing to the my german words. I use assocations to remember new ones. Now I wondering about that if this method is enough fast in repeating. I can’t spend for example 30 minutes per day for remind any sets, because in future it mitgh grow to, dunno, 10 sets per day or even more.
System of that repeating it’s even more complicated, but I think it’s good topic of next post.
It’s half past midnitgh. Again too late… ;) .
