I used to keep a dictionary beside my bed, and whenever I came across a word I didn't understand, I'd look it up. It made me realise that there were a lot of words I was just skipping over and didn't understand - and breaking every few minutes was ruining the story. Eventually, I abandoned the dictionary and just glossed over stuff, that was presumably just adjectives or something, because the stories made sense without them anyway. These days, Kindles have built in dictionaries! Did you know that? I still have a crap vocab and use simple words.... but not simple enough for Grammarly, obviously. :-)
