Hello everyone
This subject haven't left my mind for a while. As you know I've been struggling with fluency for a long time. Since I've found the cool application I started to realize that the fluency not the biggest problem. I've been practicing to talk for an hour every day and I can already see the improvements. I can speek freely and it doesn't take me a lot of time to express my thoughts.
The problem that I've found is the lack of vocabulary. I assume I speak so simply. During the conversations I was realizing that I didn't use the words that I'd learned before. I'm trying to find any methods to turn passive vocabulary into active. If anyone knows something about it let me know in the comments, please.

Good work, Marco. You had a few mistakes, but then you also had some really good sentences. Bravo! 👍🏼
Hello, here's my hack: Pick five words or ten, then write a funny / crazy story with them or you can just pick up your phone and record your voice as you tell this story. When you write, you have more time to think, if you're the pondering type.
Hello @Nonka, thanks for you comment. How many words do you learn in one day
Hello @CocoPop, thanks for supporting, I'm really trying to my best, but I've pointed out that I don't like writing posts too long and I think consequently there're my mistakes
When you learn new vocabulary you can try to write them down. Then you can make a conversation with someone that speaks that language and try to incorporate the words in the conversation. If you don't have anyone to talk to (like myself, lol) then you can make up a conversation and speak to yourself out loud. (:
Hey good post, well done!! I also have the same issue with Russian, I don’t know much vocabulary to be able to express myself and I forget any new words I learn. But for me, if i hear the word 5/6 times in a conversation or sentence I tend to remember it. I try to find simple conversations on YouTube and just repeat the video over and over. Then I use the word/words in my own sentences!
