G'day mate, how's it going? Today, what I'd like to talk about is how to use English dictionary wisely, which is probably one of the most sensational and the trickiest topics for many of you guys. Let me demystify this, shall I? Without further ado, let's get cracking!

First and foremost, you don't need a vocabulary book known as "tangocho" in Japanese. Have you ever considered and analysed what the purpose of this sort of tangocho would be? The short answer is Marketing, which is undeniably true under any circumstance. I am not saying this is a fraudulent thing, but nonetheless this is nearly the same thing, because what they are thinking is going to be money money and money, right? I understand how important money is, but I don't think they take into consideration the necessity of the customers' needs rather than earning money. Even if they are trying to say what it is implicitly, it's fairly easy to see a plausible pretext from the contents themselves. You are just contributing your precious money to their marketing and money-making. Sorry to digress a bit from my main points, but yeah so please stop buying any tangocho.

Ok, gotcha. Then, how should we use English dictionary wisely? Well, the short answer is reading everything as you read books. In it, there are heaps of information that are indispensable for learning not just vocabulary but the English language per se. My view is that learning English without English dictionary is utterly nonsensical, precisely because it is almost impossible for English learners to get used to a wide range of vocabulary and grammar without seeing and reading example sentences using specific words. Without knowing the usage of words, you won't be able to speak and write any sentence confidently. As you know, people tend to find it difficult to understand you if your sentence is wonky in terms of the usage, grammar as well as even spelling. All things considered, learning the English language from English dictionary is one of must-do things.

What you can do with English dictionary are checking pronunciation, reading definitions, understanding usages, and applying example sentences to your monologue. First up, pronunciation. You've got to understand the relationship between spellings and phonemic symbols. IPA tends to be registered major phonemic symbols, depending upon dictionary. Next up, reading definition and understanding usages. Here, you don't have to write anything, but read them aloud as clear as you possibly can. The clearer your voice and pronunciation, the faster you'll get used to new words. And last up, applying example sentences to your monologue, which is probably the most important thing to be done. The vast majority of English learners tend not to do so. Don't stress! This is too simple. What you should do is to read example sentences to understand how the word is used within a sentence structure. And then, you try to emulate the structure and usage, but try not to copy exactly the same one. You just try to change a little bit like replacing surrounding words to make your own contents. My tip is try not to say or write too complicated content. The simpler ideas you come up with, the easier you'll stick them in your mind.

Thanks for reading my blog. I'll see you guys soonish!
