"My least favourite phrase in the English language is 'I don't care'." - James Caan.
Do you have favourite phrases and least favourite phrases? Are there certain words or phrases you become bored of using? Do you struggle to find the words when you are writing?
It is possible to increase your vocabulary in English, just as you might if you are learning a foreign language, where you must make an effort to build your vocabulary. You can collect different words from various sources, including books, of course, but also newspapers and television programmes. If you have favourite websites, songs or television programmes, you've probably already picked up any phrases that caught your attention. Try to vary your reading or viewing diet, so that you will become exposed to an even wider vocabulary. Use your increased vocabulary whenever you get the chance!
