I am enjoying using this method. I have modified it a little bit though, and I would like your opinion on my modification. I have a 'passive' and an 'active' goldlist process going on in parallel. I started with the passive headlist and tested myself from the target language into English. I put non-remembered items into the distillation, and I created a new headlist in my active goldlist from the remembered items. When I distil the active headlists, I test myself from English to the target language. I am using this for Russian and Thai and it seems to be working for me.

[@EnglishwithMax]

Hi there! I can't say I have a strong opinion. If it's working for you, then I say keep using it!

[@lianebianchin4875]

You used to study Portuguese!! It was so cool to know that!! I'm a Portuguese native speaker and I don't find people from other countries learning Portuguese very often so, it was a nice surprise to hear this from you!! As usual, I loved the lesson! Eu sempre aprendo also novo com seus vídeos! Bom sorte para você em todos os seus projetos!!

Thanks, Aparecido!

[@habsheim0]

Each time I find a new word, I write it on a « post-it » and stick it on a large paper board in my office. The various « post-it »s form a list. I come back to it after a few days and check if I can remember the meaning of the word or expression or not. If yes, I throw the post-it away. If not, I leave it on the paper board till I can remember it. I like the feeling of seeing my list getting shorter after I threw away the words I memorised. I found this system by myself. I did not know your version. Interesting to see both support the same memorisation process. Thanks for the video.

[@EnglishwithMax]

Nice! It's great that you devised a method which works for you. :)

I'm learning Portuguese seriously this year I've been exposed to the language way back in 2010 but not all the time only during capoeira classes and it's also not that often so this year I decided to really try to speak and understand it so I could go to the Porto Santiago route after this pandemic is over in the next 5 years :)

Thanks for the advice, its so practical. I am going to jump outside my comfort zone and use it as a starter to try to learn another language; at the least enough to get by as a tourist.

[@EnglishwithMax]

Great! Which language do you plan to learn?

[@peternakitch4167]

English with Max French, I have travelled in Europe and the UK but have never seen France; after hearing “horror” stories about the French and their language from friends thought it wasn’t worth the hassle. Silly attitude on my part! While COVID makes it almost impossible to travel I can put the time to good use. It’s also a challenge to see how much I can learn in maybe a year.

Thank you for the advice. I'll try it for my debuts in learning Italian. I don't think it would work efficiently for English though. I read a lot and used to write down so many words I hadn't time to review everything. Now my "method" is to make sure I understand the meaning and pay attention to the structures. Then when I encounter again and again the same word, I begin to be able to use it. For the one and only occurrence, I don't bother anymore.

[@EnglishwithMax]

That makes sense. If you're already reading a lot, I think your vocabulary will improve without using methods like this. :)

[@joseaugustopereiradesousa493]

Catherine l'd like to suggest you to listen to some Italian videos/podcasts. I study Italian by myself and I do make progress this way. Good luck on your journey!

[@joseaugustopereiradesousa493]

Excuse me, I mean you could continue your method and try to add some videos like Italy Made Easy, One World Italiano or Passione Italiana. It was a very helpful tool for me! Greetings!

[@dimakonovalov8659]

I'm Russian. I learn English. It's a good method for beginners, for initial knowing of a word. But for good knowing of language, learners should use Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary (or similar Cambridge, Longman, Collins) . They explain HOW you should use words. What propositions with, what collocations, what meaning of the word. Often Russians confuse it. For example, you couldn't write the right translation of the "get" word. This method is good for simple words like "apple", "watermelon" "table" etc.

[@EnglishwithMax]

That's a good point, but you can also include sentences or phrases.

Hi Emma, My method is similar to yours. I use excel instead of papers because there is unlimited space for you to record anything, like meaning, pronunciation, sample sentences and others. One more important point is that u can arrange all the words u learnt just with a click! So they wil be in order in few seconds. Of course, U can find the word U learnt within a few second, too. This practice can help u review the vocab U learnt easily. I am looking forward to your reply. Patrick
