It's really fun to make up a story with the number of words (10-15). Start the story with a phrase " It was a dream.." - and there can be anything you imagine 😂 ( dreams could be really weird ) . Also use something like "story dice" app - you shake your phone, see 6-9 pictures and make up story or sentences.
Review new words at increasing intervals over time to reinforce long-term memory. Use new words in conversations, journaling, or creative writing.
I try to incorporate the new words into daily conversation, writing sentences, reinforcing them by teaching others.
