Default Re: I certainly have trouble to remember things.

Belly,

For both vocabulary words and idioms I recommend that you try to use the word or phrase at least 10 times in different contexts within a day or two of discovery and then periodically after that as you deem appropriate. This method does not work for everyone but there is something about using these new words and phrases that help them to stick in our minds.

Good luck,
Carl
