Thanks. The guy obviously "needs help."

We keep adding vocabulary on one side and we keep losing on the other side .. how to handle this problem?

Just keep studying, reading, and learning. Eventually, most of the vocabulary will stick, and you will not lose much of it.

Well said, everything has a price and I need to pay this price :)
