The Adventures of Odyssea: Ch 7.4 - Ithaca (end of story)

孔融是汉朝有名的文学家，他六七岁的时候就聪明过人。许多有才学的大官出各种各样的难题考他，都没有把他难住。有一次，孔融参加了一个宴会。在宴会上，孔融机智地回答了几个人出的难题，受到在场官员的称赞。大家都说他长大后一定有出息。有一位大官见众人都捧这个六七岁的孩子，心里很不服气，便对大家说：“依我看，小时候聪明的人，长大以后不一定聪明。”孔融听了，马上接过话来，对他说：“我想，您小时候一定非常聪明。”

Hello guys. This is Kate Zh. In this episode I am gonna tell you about a strategy to remember new words forever.

I know this is a big problem for everyone when they are learning a new language. Now I am learning a new language which is Korean. To be honest I forgot how hard it is to study words in a language which you don’t know completely. I was completely astounded because I just couldn’t remember new words.

Here is a strategy I use to memorize these Korean words.

Step number 1: look at new words, translate them(if you are a beginner) or find the definition(if you are an old hand.

Step number 2: read the context with new words again. You should always see the context. This is why we easily remember the words from songs and movies.

Step number 3: read other sentences with these words. There are good websites which provide you with a lot of context.

Step number 4: ask your friend to read you the sentence and you have to add the new words.

Step number 5: Write your sentences using new words and talk to your friend or record your speech, again, yes, using new words.

That’s the strategy, guys, I hope it was useful. Come to my lessons if you want to make some progress in your English.

Here are some words from this podcast today:
