Introduction:

Korean vocabulary plays an important role in learning Korean or if you want to succeed in the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK) make vocabulary an important part of your learning process.

Here is the best way to learn Korean vocabulary

• Make List of Words 

Word lists are the most widely used Vocabulary learning methods. This can be done by making a two-column table with Korean words in one column and their meanings in the other column. Review these words regularly and mark the words that are learned completely. While reviewing these difficult words will also go to your permanent memory and then you can unmark them. 

Even if you think that you have completely learned a list, it’s better to review it once again. Make a list of difficult words that you forget and revise it frequently or you can also consider making your own personal dictionary with the dictionary of words that is important for you.

• Have Dictionary with you

Keep a dictionary and look up words that are different words. Have a habit of finding an alternative way of expressing yourself when you do not know the appropriate word. These online dictionaries give you much more information and it is even better than asking a teacher because when you see a dictionary there are several related words and phrases as well.

• Learn Words in Context

Words are rarely used in a context with other words, phrases, and grammar patterns. The meaning of a word is not enough. You need to know ‘when’ and ‘how’  the word is used. 

These words are used with particular people, at particular times, and in a particular way. 

Using the word in the wrong way may create an embarrassing situation when you learn a word you will get information about the context used.

• Learn Related words

When learning a new word, try to learn other words/phrases that are frequently used with it. If you look up the dictionary for the word you will find the meaning and if you read example entries you will find that this word is most frequently used to show comparisons. 

Also, learn possible forms of a word. This type of additional information will help you to learn the appropriate use of the words.

• Review and Practice

We need frequent exposure by listening, speaking, reading, or writing, to learn and words need 20-30 repetitions to move to our permanent memory. Use the new words that you learn as much as you can which are doubtful about its correct use. Learn the words that are in different combinations. 

Mistakes are common that everyone will make. Making funny mistakes is also the most interesting when you are learning a foreign language.
