Learning English Vocabulary

Learning vocabulary through categories is an efficient approach to language study. Instead of attempting to memorize individual words in isolation, grouping them into categories provides context and structure to the learning process. Using categories not only simplifies the task of retaining words but also facilitates a deeper understanding of how words interconnect.

Below are 83 categorized vocabulary lessons, each with 8-30 commonly used words. Every lesson has example sentences (simple and advanced) and an interactive memory game.
