Read articles written by educated people, anyone can write a blog. Read articles and books about grammar and linguistics. There are a lot of fun little books about forgotten or rare words. This book, for example. Also, you have to make a conscious effort to change the way you speak and write without being self-conscious about it "sounding weird." The only way that our language will improve, or at least not deteriorate, is if we pay attention to how we speak and avoid laziness. "Oh, you know what I meant!" No, I know what you said. We have a language that allows us to be very precise and we should make good use of it.
I found it in a book that I highly recommend if you like... weird words
