There is no doubt about it．The best way to learn new words is to do it unconsciously (无意识地)．I don’t mean while you’re unconscious．I mean while you are unconscious of the fact that they are sinking in．That is how I learnt the
30，000 words in my vocabulary by living in an English-speaking world．I just picked them up．But some of them may be misunderstood．Now，to misunderstand does not mean not to understand．To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly．
The 5％of all the misunderstood words we “know” will be the least frequently used words，as the more frequently used words are less likely to be misunderstood． Some of the misunderstandings may last all our lives，without knowing that we get them wrong．
Many English teachers think that this natural method of learning words in one’s own mother tongue can be used for second language learning．They teach their students how to play the Guessing Game．“There is no time to look up in your dictionaries all the new words you come across，’’they will say．“You have to practise guessing what the word means from the context．’’
This method of guessing in a second language learning does not work It may succeed in many cases，but results in hundreds or thousands of wrongly-guessed meanings of words．
And what’s more，there are more separate meanings than there are words themselves．Our learners’ dictionaries usually have many meanings. A good dictionary is what makes self-learning possible．
Don’t guess! Look it up!
