Then use the new words as often as you can _____ you learn them.

A. each day
B. each day when
C. the first day
D. from the time

I know D is correct. Could A be possible?

Many thanks in advance.

Not A, because (hopefully) you need to learn a word only once. However, C is possible.

C. the first day
D. from the time

Thank you, but I was taught 'the first day' means something like 'as soon as', how can 'the first day' be possible here? Could you please explain it to me?

Many thanks.

The first day just means 'the first day'. If you learn the word 'egregious' on March 31st, then use it as often as you can on March 31st.

Not a very practical option, but certainly grammatically possible.
