I enjoy learning new words, but I find I have to see them or hear them several times before I will remember them. And sometimes I realize that I have seen and heard a word several times but, if asked, I wouldn't be able to define it. I like looking up these words because I tend to remember them better since I am already familiar with them.

When I was growing up I read many words that I never heard pronounced. Years later when they would come up in conversation..."Oh, it's pronounced like that?!"
So, I also appreciate the pronunciation resources available on the internet!
