Similarly, an English speaker learning Malay might remember the word

1
pintu, which means “door”, by using the English words pin and into.
The learner might remember that he or she can use a hatchet eight times to
2
cut down a tree.
When you are trying to decide what to write, you should remember that this
3 notebook is yours, and you should include information that will help you
remember the word.
Finally, the most important thing you can do to learn the words in your
4
notebook is to practice these words several times.
For example, a Japanese learner of English might look at the English word
5 hatchet and connect it to the Japanese word hachi (“eight”) because they
sound alike.
If you follow these important steps in keeping a good vocabulary notebook,
6
you can improve your English greatly.
This step requires you to decide whether a word is important enough for you
7
to try to learn it by including it in your vocabulary list.
Keeping a vocabulary notebook for learning new English words is not
8
complicated if you follow a few easy steps.

9 Do not assume that you will remember the word later.

10 You should select the color and size notebook that you prefer.

Then, you have to write down any important words that you find when
11
reading or listening.
The keyword method, which can help language learners remember new
12
vocabulary, is gaining popularity among teachers and students.

13 First, you must buy a notebook with at least 100 lined pages.

The next step is a bit difficult because you need to decide what information
14
about each word you will write down in your notebook.

15 He or she can imagine putting a pin into the door to open it.

16 Some people write a synonym in English.

While some learners write only a translation of the word, other people write
17
an example phrase using the word.
In this method, learners first form their own sound association between the
second language word they are trying to learn and a word in their first
18
language. In the second stage, learners form an image link between the target
word and the first language word.
If the pages of your notebook are neat and inviting, you are more likely to
19
review the words and their information multiple times.
Through these two simple examples, we can get an idea of how useful this
20
method of remembering vocabulary can be.
