Sometimes if we meet some words that we don’t understand while reading an English page, we may consult an online dictionary. Nowadays online dictionary provides not only the meaning of the word, but also the pronunciation, example sentences, synonyms, antonyms, collocation, translation, and etc. But after consulting the online dictionary and know what the word means, we may easily forget the word if we don’t use them often. How to use these data and make users memorize them is an important topic. The result of this research is to design a useful tool to help user learning English vocabulary. This tool is combined with the Internet Explorer and can be used on almost all Web pages. We collect the resources from the Internet and integrate them to provide to the user. Our system also includes the WordNet to provide the words’ relations. The system also record users’ actions when they use this system. The record can be used to help users memorizing the words.
