It is important for me to remember a vocabulary.
Because, vocabulary is root to understand english. Method to remember vocabulary is very simple. It isn't short way. We just need repeat and repeat. If you want to improve english ablity, you have to study vocabulary hardly. Unless you know word's meaning, you don't understand exactly.
Do you want to know vocabulary?

hello Mr. Yang. Good luck with your studies.
The following phase has a problem:
"you have to study vocabulary hardly"
In this usage, hardly means "very little"
For example one cold say, "I hardly ever get a cold" (almost never)
You could say, " you have to study the vocabulary very hard"
Another example: "I have to study hard for the exam"
I hope this helps.

Sorry! There was a typing error in the previous message:
"one could say" not "cold say"
