Re: vocabulary building website

Another site is VocabSushi- It claims "With VocabSushi, flash cards are a
thing of the past. The best way to build your vocabulary is not rote
memorization. It's seeing how words are used in everyday language."
http://www.vocabsushi.com/
It tracks your progress and adds new words as you learn words, using
sentences from the news.
