If your answer is yes, you can confidently proceed to read.

It is, however, our active vocabulary that makes us stand out from the rest amongst other learners. With this being said, active vocabulary should be explained. Active vocabulary consists of those words we can correctly and confidently use for our daily communications with others without having to look them up in a dictionary. To enrich our active vocabulary and deeper understanding of new words and the words we know but we cannot use them confidently, we can take the following approaches into account.
