How to learn 50+ vocab words a day
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 11. 2012
- This is the method I used to learn over 50 vocab words a day and retain nearly all of them. Through repeating 3-4 times on a standard piece of lined paper per day, you'll learn about 48-64 words. I don't recommend you try more than 3-4 of these per day (about 30-45 minutes), but once you're comfortable with the method you can safely increase it to around 100 words per day.

Where can I get myself some ancient Chinese Sky-zors?
Max White lol
It’s a special type of scissors.
Japanese*
ive been doing this since i was in middle school. you can memorize literally anything with this method
I did this method, but instead of vocab words, I wrote terms on one paper and their definitions on the other. It worked really well.
This paper is mine
Omg i died there for some reason
😂

and this horizontal line!
daisy clemmons well....I think I'm alive?
Dai non refundable
Shame on your ancestor :D made me laugh!
hahaha
Hahaha
This is the weirdest video I've seen so far in 2015.
But cool tips, I'll test them.
Arlindo Neto well...it's really weird..but this tips is nothing new😅💢
It's 2020 now
How was your test?
@@putinniejimmy5795 😂
All of the other papers are the same as the first, just with more words. The idea is that you end up with several papers, each with the top half filled with English words and the bottom filled with words in your target language, and then you're quizzing yourself on them once in each direction (English --> target, then target --> English).
It's actually the piece "Tea Roots" from artist Kevin MacLeod (website in the description). He makes free music and everyone loves to use it for their videos :)
"if not - shame on your ancestors" LOL
love this. from now on I'll say skyzors.
сЫзорз :-D
I have to do a unit of french per day to be able to successfully complete french 2 for this summer (each containing about 100 words), and I'm doing something similar.
I write the lists down initially, and then I go back, look at the english words, and then translate them. When I mess up, I will put a dot on the paper, rewrite it, and move on. When I finish the list, I go back and take all of the words with the dots and practice only those. I continue until I can write all of the words, but I take the few that I had the most trouble with and put them on a list with all of the words I had trouble with.
It's annoying, tedious, and difficult, but it works. I got myself into this mess, and I don't plan on giving up.
Lmao skyzors!
I just yelled Pik Mei Rou with a very strong Chinese accent.
I'm loving this idea. Thank you!
Can you tell me , please. Did this idea make any changes for you? Did it help you to learn 50+ vocabulary a day?
did it work?
This is hilarious! I'm definitely going to try this out, since the only thing keeping me from being conversational in Japanese is lack of vocab.
I feel your struggle
Intervals are kinda up to you, depending on what you prefer, but I don't think there's some magic number. The idea though is to keep one interval soon after doing it, then another interval later on to bring it back to your memory. The more you use the vocabulary of course the better.
Because of this video, my exams will be a piece of cake'!
Skyzors!!! aww man that was hilarious xD x)
It seems useful ! I'm taking Spanish now and I think I'm gonna try this method.
Thank you Sensei.
The easiest part of learn Spanish is that is a phonetic language, the difficult part are grammar and that a one word has different meanings depending of the region. Buena suerte.
have you learned now?
"How many miles? Would you say, ten million?"
This actually looks like a really good method! I'll definitely try it out!
He sounds like the guy from kung pow LMAOO
The character is "囍," which is a Korean-made Chinese character that is pronounced "희" ("Hee") and means something like "may there be happiness added to your happiness."
Thank u so much for your method to learn english!
These methods have been preserved in the secret archives of ancient china and would have been only offered to those who might be considered strong candidates of future emperors. Shifu Pikmeir honors the dynasty by continuing the path of the teachings.
That's correct :-) I practice by making sentences, either by writing them down or by speaking them in conversation - the latter being a bit more useful of course.
So funny this video! Hahaha, I like your sense of humor :D
Hey Hey Pikmeir, looking forward to seeing your next video. How to learn 50+ vocab words a day was interesting.
i've tried this kind of routine for my vocabulary list but didn't work out well. I have to learn with context, voice, and picture (or imagination). But it's good to share.
This kind of learning is only a first step, to give the words a toehold in your long-term memory. You have to put the vocabulary to immediate use in your speaking and writing, or you won't retain it for long!
I get more out of adding in the extra sense of physically writing it and then quizzing myself on it than I do from learning with Anki, though I do think it's an awesome program.
There is good research evidence to back this up - adding a tactile element to your learning gives the brain another sensory channel to hook onto...
All I can say is you deserve a big fat like.
I'm struggling to learn german vocabularies.
Thanks
I love the way he says 'scissors' even though it's wrong. Bless >.
I know how to spell scissors xD I didn't know American's pronounced scissors like that because i'm from the UK. Sorry
RIPxBlackHawk Of course i did, it was the way u worded it -.-
RIPxBlackHawk How old are you ? 6 ? I'm kindly wording my replies and your going all harsh. Just leave it now.
I only put "-.-" because i was getting fed up of the harsh sounding comments that was all. If you re read your previous comments, they do sound harsh with all the exclamation marks. I'm not starting a fight i'm just saying
i think it's wrong.
Love this video !! Great stuff guys
This seems like such a great method I will try it to learn Polish.
haha got lazy -_- but i have a polish book instead
+Uniyou good luck with your polish. 👍
Adrian lol, I found a comment posted three months ago on my old account.
Imma go now on it to see what's new there
I love your humour. The "annoying-ness" is the best part! Thank you for listening to your heart ;-)
Haha, you made my day, guy. Well, I think this works for beginners, kind of reading-writting or visual-kinesthetic learners and non-phonetic languages. Is said that each people learns of different ways. And I will have to add one thing, is learn about things that are around us. For example if somebody studies something related to business that person will have to learn vocabulary related with business and daily life. Languages have thousands of words that we have to choose some specific vocabularies and keep using in some way the words that we have learnt.
A very helpful video, I been wondering how to practice words and how many per day and seems that I just got an answer haha. Thank you!
seems practical and useful ,i'll give it a try!
can one tell me how l do that
so when you're done with the first page do you move onto a different set of words or do you rewrite the words from the first page?
'skyzors' hahahahahahaha i love it !!
Skyzors xDDDDD
and the way u pronounce the word "scissor" is also cute, though :))
Good tip sensei. I will use it in my Spanish studies.
I thought this video was a joke at first but this is actually an extremely cool study method! Gonna get those N4 kanji down
Guys, I don't know what the hell this guy is talking about. But I have found two very effective techniques for memorizing words. (1) One is that you select some manageable number, say 10-40, and you go to google, find an image that captures the essence of the word to you, or use the snipping tool and paint to bring together different images into one, then you paste these images into a word document. You can print out a crapload of copies and keep writing the word above each image without looking until you can label the whole page from memory almost perfectly spelled several times in a row. It may take a few pages or may take up to 20 copies or more, but if you keep doing it, you will memorize them. Then you make sure you do it every day for like at least 10 days or so. By the third or fourth day you generally have the words memorized almost perfectly, so it may only require a page or two by that day to review, but it is essential to continue at this point until it is very heavily put into your brain. The disadvantage is that it takes paper, it takes time, it takes ink, it may be difficult to express some words with a single image, but the advantage is that you stick these words into your brain long term and bypass any translation problems because you are thinking in images not words. (2) Is also effective and is just fill in the blank method. Get an article or a bunch of sentences, and go through and put blank spaces wherever you want the word or phrase to be recalled. Next to the blank space, put parentheses with the mother tongue word equivalent next to the blank. Print out a shitload of copies of the blanks and keep filling it out until you can fill it out from memory, and repeat again for like 10 days in a row. The advantage with this is that you get the context, but it may be slightly harder to memorize without a picture. FINAL POINTS: Writing things down is essential. Daily review for a period of several days is essential. If you cannot memorize the whole list at once, just try to successfully fill in say 3 blanks at a time, then flip to a fresh blank page, and make sure you can do those 3 again and again, then try to do 3 more, then repeat, and keep building up until you can reproduce the whole thing. You will forget a lot for a while, several days most likely, but it will eventually stick with you as long as each day you get to the point where you can fill out the list perfectly at least once. Realistically, if you are able to dedicate about 1 hour to making a new list and memorizing it every day, perhaps up to 30 words or more, and if you can dedicate 1 hour to reviewing all the previous say 10 days needed to review, you should be able to rapidly acquire a shitload of vocabulary words, with context, by using these methods. One more point - keep one long list somewhere of all the vocabulary you have learned with dates indicating when the words were added to your system. Once you have solidly planted them in your head with 10 days or more of active recall, you will need to periodically just look through this list and passively ensure that you keep activating the words even for just a moment.
Thank you for your suggestions, I will try to apply these techniques. Those seem to be great methods for learning vocabulary, again thanks a lot!!
liked the comedy..!! hwevr Good way to learn vocab..
Thank you! It worked for me not in a 100% but more than 50%. I think it's good
Gathering the paraphernalia is the most enriching part of this exercise. Haha.
Feel so scared to use a method to learn a language as I want to learn 2-3 which is Bosnian, Malay/Turkish. Hoping this method will work. Wish me luck
Loved it! :)
sky scores?
Does anybody know where to get a pair of Sky-Zors?
You had the famous Skyzors that's why you learnt, come on don't hide your little sekret!!
I personally liked it, it helped me remember the technique.
from now on i'm only gonna say sky-sohrs instead of scissors😂
don't remake it, this is awesome and fun, anyone who complains is useless and "shame to their ancestors" =)
oh and I forgot to mention this looks damn effective! do you use other intervals beyond first few hourly repetitions? e.g. next day, in 3 days, in a week, in a month?
It was good one. I will use it in my Arabic vocabularies list
Or you can simply use flashcards (more especifcly, Ankidroid)
Very interesting and realistic idea to learn...... Thanks a lot Brother.....
Can you use this for words and definitions?
wow very good idea i will try to do that
Did Christopher Lambert narrate this?
sky-sors xD, sorry m8 but that's not how u pronounce scissors
+Jelle Donders I feel about the floor ='>
+Jelle Donders Um.... I think he is joking. :)

hahah, you are very good teacher!
Did any body try this method . Is it work ?
What's the name of the song?
innovative way of training ..
at first, I thought that he would write down the vocabs, after that buried the paper and then drunk it, like Nobita did. But it's not happened. Anyway, thanks so much for uploading this video :)
Did you use his method?
I love it... ;)
This must be the most funny video i've ever seen to learn English! LOL
Pik Mei Rou, are you any relation to Pik Mei Noze?
amazing, master! 😎😎
It was either that, or Comic Sans.
Love your accent ^^
I use the same method too :D
And I agree it's very effective! :)
Funny video and interesting video.
Like this approach MUCH better than the Gold List method. THANKS!!
