How to study vocabulary?

<p>Generally I have a hard time with vocabulary because there are just so many possible definitions and I like to choose the one I like the best and memorize it that way. I'm kind of a perfectionist on things. Some words also have multiple meanings so I find it difficult. How do you guys learn your vocabulary?</p>

<p>For Vocab in context of passage, Never have I chosen the closest meaning (somtimes this trick fails, but it works to me)</p>
