remembering words
There are too many words in English; I think, it's too difficult to remember them in my learning. Could you give me some advice? Thanks a lot.

You can help yourself to remember words & phrases by using an app like quizlet, memrise or ankisrs. They are flashcard programs - create your own flashcards and then practise with them every day and also try and use the words in your writing and speaking.

I would say to best way to expand your vocabulary is to read (and listen to) a lot of good books.
Creating an isolated list and memorizing them by brute force is not a good idea - it will make you hate leaning.
You keep reading books that are interesting and useful, going through the normal cycle of learn-forget-relearn.
Eventually your brain retain more and more words for the long term, and you become better and better.
Language means" interconnectedness". I would shun anything that promotes learning vocabulary in isolation.

I wouldn't suggest you learn new words by heart. A language should be learnt through practice and something that can help is seeing the words in context, that is, through conversation or reading.

if you do not use english , it is no use to do that.
