@Aydin, how do we check we can use a word, not just remember its definition? Could you show one vocabulary note?

Choose a few words and try them in short practice sentences where their meaning fits. Then answer a question without trying to include every word. Repeating them in nearly every sentence can make the answer unnatural; accurate, appropriate use matters more.

Would you practise the words in a few sentences first, then try a speaking answer without the list? How can we tell if a word fits naturally or if we're forcing it into the sentence?

A learner dictionary helps with phrases too. Like heavy rain, not just the meaning of 'heavy'. Find a similar example, then try your own sentence.

School phrases could work: 'give feedback', 'make progress', 'pay attention'.
'The teacher gave feedback on the homework' could become 'Customers gave feedback on the new service'. Same phrase, different topic.

But how do we check if it sounds forced in our own sentence? Swapping the topic might help, like teachers and customers both giving feedback. Not sure that's enough though.
