This week in English, it was all about vocabulary! It's been ages since I've updated my language record but Vocabulary.com has since become incredibly useful in replacing my record. I love using the website to practice my usage of words as you are able to "learn" a word until we are familiar with it. I find this incredibly useful! Outside, I use a word learning application called Anki to learn Chinese and this strategic way of 'remembering' words that we aren't familiar with and drilling us until so makes learning really effective.
The "Orpheus the Lyrical" game however was rather hard for me as the examples are sometimes hard to understand and I have to juggle playing while recording the examples and their figurative language style. I would get too distracted with the game or with recording resulting in a chaos.
I would definitely keep using Vocabulary to enhance and widen my vocabulary skills and hopefully apply my new knowledge of words to my writing.
Glad to hear the site is useful. I find it quite addictive!
