When you learn a new word, the first thing you should find out is not "What does it mean?" but rather "When can I use it?"

Perfect grammar also isn’t as important as vocabulary at first. Lots of native English speakers haven’t mastered English grammar, and they get by just fine. You can still be fluent in English and make some grammar mistakes. But you can’t be fluent if you only know a few words.

Speaking in English with native English speakers is the best method for improving your ability to learn the correct pronunciation. This will also increase your ability to understand individual words spoken in English at the natural speed of native speakers.

Don't focus on what you can’t say in English and feeling disappointed. Focus on the fact that you can some words. That is an accomplishment and anyone learning a language should be proud.

Stop translating: By translating you are doing a lot more work than necessary and it is not improving your ability to think in English. Instead of using a bilingual dictionary, use an English only dictionary to look up the definition of the new words.
