Word Power

Now I am referring to the most important topic from which it would become a tricky game for you to learn any language has vocabulary so by learning them we can learn any language. This is the method of linking and association. As we all know that every new word is somewhere linked with old words so ultimately there is nothing new so try to trace out those old words from new, which are already known to you. Only two rules to learn any vocabulary 1. 2. One should find out an old word which is already known, from new word or should find a word which rhymes similar to it. Find a key word from new word make its memory link with meaning of new word you can memorize very easily.

In this book mostly use second rule, because this is the best rule for remember numbers of words.

Memory Graph

Whatever you learn that remains in your mind for at least 24 hours. Within this time duration if you revise it again, then it will remain for 3 days in your memory. And if you again revise it, in between those 3 days than it will remain for 7 days in your memory. At last if you again revise it, in between those 7 days then it will remain for longtime in your memory. The main thing is that this technique increases your application confidence.

Guide Line

When we read again & again it makes link between conscious and subconscious mind. If the link is not made properly then it diminished, but if we learn ridiculously then the link between two remains for a very long time. Here is a guide line for every reader to try to imagine a ridiculous video in your mind of every ridiculous story given for every word & then you will feel the difference. Why I am telling this just because as I tell the name of anything like Johnny Lever, Shahrukh Khan, Mr. Been, Barbie Doll the picture of that particular thing/person will immediately come to your mind. In the same way imagine the ridiculous video of every ridiculous story of every word given in the book. Note: Please dont take any name/action in ridiculous stories as offensive.
