<p>The best strategy is to spread the vocab studying over a long period of time (e.g. 2-5 words a day) and use it in real life.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, I’m lazy and don’t care to do all that.</p>
<p>At any rate, the more hastened, but a bit less effective, route would be to a) read books and then do the above b) do the above but with more words/day. At any rate, it’s very inefficent, in my opinion, to merely memorize words. </p>
<p>Just my two cents.</p>
