How to develop your vocabulary?
There are plenty of learning methods for making your vocabulary wider in any (foreign)languages.
Here I'd like to list some exercises, tasks, tips and methods you can apply for yourself anytime,anywhere.
All the main language skills--> LISTENING, READING, WRITING AND SPEAKING SKILLS are based on the words you learn. The more words you know the better you can express yourself in any languages.
Learning new words is usually boring and exhausting...but it shouldn't be like this all the time.
If you're creative enough you can adopt your ideas and learning style to newer ones that you can find either on the internet or in books for language learners.
Now, I am attaching some of my favourite language learning tips for vocabulary boosting. Choose the ones you prefer to improve yourself.
--First of all, you need to have the following attitudes whatever you are learning or doing:
PERSISTANCE
PRACTICE
PATIENCE
PRODUCTION
/4Ps attitude/
--Then let's list a bunch of instructive learning ideas:
1. learning new words/expressions then making them into sentences; matching them with their descriptions

2. focussing on synonyms/antonyms that help you to describe a word (you don't know) with other words

3. find the mistakes

6. READING, LISTENING, WRITING tasks are also really essential for learning new words, expressions
--a never ending process: eg. while reading you can find unknown words a. check them from a thesaurus b. listen to their pronunciations c. put them in use --e.g. write sentences with them
--play with the words as you like in a creative way with board games, hangman, odd word, word puzzles, word chains, what's missing, spelling, pictionary, activity, or crosswords, etc.
---use a piece of paper or visit useful net sites like this
