You're not going to memorize a lot, if any, of these words if you don't regularly see/hear them, or use them.

  • I write quite a bit of poetry and use most of the words I learn in my poems.

  • No particular place, I just, as I said, look up a word if I don't know its meaning. Sometimes a person on here uses a word that I don't know, so I look it up. Sometimes in the definition of a word I don't know, there is another word I don't know. In songs I listen to, I always like to understand what they're talking about. If they use a word I don't know, I look it up. Etc.

  • And your concern is increasing your vocabulary. Asking for random words to be said to be isn't nearly as efficient a method as actually taking the time to continually see new words used in context repeatedly. If you want to increase your vocabulary so badly, you need to find some books you like to read.

    Ok you win. What's a good book? I liked a book called the Road. It's post apocalyptic. Any good books in that genre?

  • I only read science/philosophy books, so I wouldn't know.
