what is the best way to increse the vocubolary and to retain it? i often find difficulties with it?

Answer 1

Ultimately, retention comes through repeated use. Have occasion to use your brain; like a muscle, it grows stronger with activity. Read widely, talk with learned people. When you encounter unfamiliar words, seek to learn their meanings. If you really care enough to cultivate your intellect, it will happen.
Mere cramming, on the other hand, won't yield jack squat.

Answer 2

I used to find a word every three days. I would look it up, memorize the spelling, pronunciation and definition. Then, most importantly, I'd use the word as often as possible in conversation.

It's also helpful to tape the word/definition on your computer or somewhere you go to every day. The repitition helps.
