learn vocabularies by asking the mean
ing of words you would make little
progress in the language.
Ask questions when you have to, but
remember that you are pretty sure TO
overestimate the number of times

Remember, too, that in gaining

The safest and surest way is TO 60

Uncommon Sense

you will almost instantly forget It.
Then next time you need to use the
same word, you will have to ask again.

If there is no other way to get In

You could not, for example, find out

could find his place of residence and
