Learning obstacle

One thing I noticed tonight while practicing speaking Korean with my language partner is that when he uses a word that I don't know, I tend to focus on that word and it stops me in my tracks like a road block. I lose all comprehension of the rest of the sentence. Tonight the example was the word, "about, concerning (something)" I learned a different word for that and now he uses something I don't know and I'm lost. Another one was the word for "having interest in (something)" These are kind of critical parts of the sentence as far as meaning is concerned and not knowing them I sit there speachless, not knowing how to respond.
