Remember a word by using it
A translation is a useful first step, but it does not show every meaning or every situation. Read the example, then change one detail to make it true for you. After learning “appointment”, for instance, you might write, “I have an appointment on Tuesday.”
Save a few words instead of a very long list. Come back tomorrow and try to recall the meaning before looking. The Roman Urdu spelling here is a reading aid, not an official phonetic transcription. English audio uses your device’s available voice.
