Why are you only learning words?
When do you plan to start with grammar?
Or maybe phrases and sentences to learn grammar in a passive way.
You can get them from http://fsi-language-courses.org/Content.php and put them into Anki(http://ankisrs.net/ ) or an other SRS-System.

I struggled with learning Swedish, English and Spanish at the same time, but I always do the Anki reviews.
So I know some phrases and words in Spanish without studying it since my A-level exams.
At the moment I’m focusing on English. I did a lot of mistakes. Most of them are grammar mistakes. I want to make some progress before I’ll start with Swedish again.

It’s a great feeling to write a short text with no mistakes.
You’ll be sure that the other person could understand you. It doesn’t matter whether texts or conversations.

I found many tips and ideas in this forum take a look in the other logs and you’ll inspire. There are a lot of interesting methods, books and other things.

If you don’t like grammar, you’ll like Assimil. It’s expensive, but you could lend it from library.

@Josquin I want read some books and audiobooks , yes I can use some basic rules and say some things , examples with three languages:
1.Russian : Нет я не понимаю кто ты ? (No, I don't know who you are ?)
2.Spanish : Yo trabajo con mi hermano en el quiosco. (I work with my brother at the kiosk.)
3.Hebrew : אני לא מלך (I'm not a king.)

@Mareike Why are you only learning words? Before learning grammar I prefer know some basic words.
When do you plan to start with grammar? When my objectives will be finished.

Honestly I like grammar , imagine a phrase nothing grammar , example with very bad grammar : mice cats the eat , the problem of this phrase is who eat who ? They are mice or the cats ?
Example of more comprehensible phrase : The cats eat mice.

It's only very unusual to see someone who "only" learn words.
So there come up the question how to build sentences.
I have seen many theories and techniques in this forum, but noone's like yours.
If you think, it will work for you than it's fine.

Well, that actually means something like 'No, I don't understand who you are.'

'I don't know who you are' would be: Я не знаю кто ты.
