You're welcome.
One way to remember is to make up sentences of your own with the new word and/or expression... It may take a bit of extra time, but if you create 15 or 20 sentences expressing your own ideas... or otherwise, using the word, it helps a lot to make it 'yours', and remembering from here on out...
