Now again, coming back to that notebook, always have a notebook with you, always have a pen with you and don't limit yourself to one new word.
再說一次，回到筆記本這個話題上來，你們隨時都要帶一本筆記本，隨時都要帶一支筆，還有，不要局限于一個新單詞。
When you learn a new word, make sure you learn different forms of the same word, okay?
當你們學習一個新單詞的時候，請一定要學習同一個單詞的不同形式。
So for example, the word "beautiful", let's say this is a new word for you, you learn the word "beautiful".
比如單詞"beautiful"，我們假設這對你們來說是個新單詞，你們在學"beautiful"這個單詞。
Put it in your adjective column, it's an adjective, that's what you want.
把它寫在你們筆記本上形容詞那一欄，它是個形容詞，是你們想學的單詞。
But why not learn the other forms?
但是為什么不學學它的其他形式呢？
For example, what is the adverb form of "beautiful" ?
比如，"beautiful"的副詞是什么？
I think most of you know it, it's "beautifully", so you have now two new words.
我想你們大部分人都知道，那就是"beautifully"，那么現在你們有兩個新單詞了。
What is the noun form of "beautiful"?
"beautiful"的名詞形式是什么呢？
It's "beauty", you now have three new words in your vocabulary.
是"beauty"，現在你們的詞匯量里增加了三個新單詞。
Is there a verb form of "beautiful" ?
"beautiful"有沒有動詞形式呢？
Yes, as a matter of fact there is.
有，事實上還真有。
"Beautify", means to make beautiful, you now have four new words.
那就是"beautify"，它的意思是“使......美麗”，你們現在學會了四個新單詞。
Think of other words, "beautician".
再想想其他單詞，比如"beautician"。
"Beautician" is a person who works making people more beautiful, she does facials and manicures and pedicures and wax and whatever else these beauticians do.
"beautician"（美容師）的工作職責是把人們變得更加美麗，她會做美容、美甲、足療、脫毛以及任何這些美容師會做的其他事情。
Anyways try to find other forms, learn many words instead of just one word, okay?
反正你們一定要試著找到單詞的其他形式，學習多個單詞而不是僅僅只學一個。
Now some people like to study roots and suffixes and prefixes.
有些人喜歡研究詞根、后綴和前綴。
Personally I'm not a huge fan of this recommendation, but first, let me explain what a root is.
個人來說，我對這個做法并不是很推薦，不過我還是先給你們解釋一下什么是詞根吧。
