42 - Label things in your house or office with post-its

Thanks for your comment Claudia, and thanks for the suggestion (great idea!). She found the way n. 42 to improve English:

“The easiest vocabulary to learn is the vocabulary of things you see and use everyday. If you can write the names of things around you on slips of paper and stick them on the real thing, this is a great way of learning useful vocabulary. If you can leave them there over the following days and weeks, this is a very easy way of revising the vocabulary until it is properly learnt.”
(from 70 ways to improve your English)

Ok, I cannot leave post-its and labels all around my house of office, but I can tag some picture. Let’s start with bathroom (Ehi! This is not my bathroom, thanks to Google images.).



Unfortunately the devil is in the details: there are a lot of things that I’d like to name.
But this is just a start. And it’s more than the Tim Ferris’s 100 most common spoken or written words (How to Learn Any Language in 3 Months).

Goodbye!
