"narau yori narero"

One very important way to get used English is to find "input" that one is interested in and can enjoy.

if there are too many words that you have to learn all at once, it is difficult to get used to English.

you probably don't need to stop and look up the word unless you are very curious about its meaning.

The best way to get used to English words is to remember how they were used in materials you read or listened to.

To get to know a word well, you need to "meet" it in many different situations.

If, on the other had, you learn a simple sentence, you have learned something important about how to use the word.
memorizing Japanese equivalents does not work is that there are very few cases.
