Best way to learn Dovahzul

Currently going through memrise.
Is there more ways?

Also, with the words i already know (200) i can't even say simple sentences without pausing to think, is there a way around that?

What I suggest is to read several times the Word Walls (in dragon runes if you learnt them), it's a very good way to memorize words. Otherwise, you can try to focus on the sound and the meaning of the word you want to learn and to connect it with other words or ideas you know in Dovahzul or even in English (or other languages you know). With time you will be able to instinctively remember the words you've learnt, don't worry if it's not fluid yet.

The part where I see most people fail is the point where they know words but cannot use them. 
 

For me there was a point I knew all words really well and translate them in like a second. Then someone talked to me with 3 words a second and I completely lost track. For me this was a sign I wasn't even close to fluent (and greatly motivated me).
 

Use the language in normal life. Do you want food? I want to sleep. Or translate random sentences you find throughout the day. But in general find you motivation.
