How do you say these verbs\adjectives in Korean? I use dictionaries and such but I get like 080989 results and I never know which ones to use...

~ To walk
~ To care (About someone\something)
~To cheat (On a test)
~To cheat (On a bf\gf)
~Kick (Like with your legs. Injury XD)
~Punch\Slap\hit.
and how do you say "To become good\more good at something?"
Adjectives:
~smart
~stupid\dumb
~lazy
~horrible

I don't know why I need to know these words. I found a list of "Words to know in Korean" from like 9 months ago. Decided to do something about it now :P
