This will of course still be helping my language skills and ... consolidating the new vocab I have learnt :)


A couple of meanings of "consolidation" seem like a very apt description of certain aspects of language-learning. The first one is almost poetic.

consolidation:
...
-- (Earth Sciences / Geological Science) the process, including compression and cementation, by which a loose deposit is transformed into a hard rock
-- (Psychology) the process in the brain that makes the memory for an event enduring; the process is thought to continue for some time after the event
