Thank you! For now I’m not trying that much to keep improving my English, but your post so much resonated with my ongoing Polish learning, especially the fact that I have a passive vocabulary, I didn’t know that it has a name!
Getting words from our passive vocabulary into our active vocabulary is a big part of learning a language. We have to practise using the new words until they become automatic.
Great post Katie! I'll share it with my students. Shows how important it is to actually start using new vocabulary!
Thanks Sylwia!
