If you’d like to improve your English, one thing you can do is to build up your vocabulary. In order to do
this, you have to practise a lot. I’m afraid there is not a short cut for this. But there are many effective
ways. First of all, you should read a lot. You can read short stories, comics, newspapers, magazines, etc
depending on your English level. As you read, you can try to guess the meanings of unknown words from
the context of the sentence. If you can not, then look up the definition in a dictionary. English to English
dictionary should be your first choice and keep the translator at last. Another way of building vocabulary
is to watch movies in English which will also help with pronunciation. Try to be involved with the
language as much as you can. Keep a vocabulary notebook and write down a few words each day. Keep in
mind that you have to revise them regularly. In my opinion, to communicate with people all you need is
words. Even if you just say the words one after another, people most likely will understand what you
mean regardless of the order of the words and grammar.

A. What we can do to improve our English B. The difficulties in learning English
