Questions
Common questions about learning English
How many English words do I need to understand everyday speech?
Around 2000-3000 word families cover most everyday conversation, and the first 1000 frequent words already carry a large share of ordinary text. That is why the frequency lists here go from top 300 up to 5000.
How do I learn English pronunciation from a written word?
Each English word page shows transcription and audio next to the meaning and examples, so you connect spelling, sound and usage in one place instead of guessing the reading.
What is the difference between similar English words?
Confusing pairs such as present and gift or glad and happy differ in register and typical context rather than in dictionary meaning. The word comparison pages explain each pair with short usage examples.
How are the English levels A1 to C1 used here?
Vocabulary is grouped into CEFR level lists, so you can study A1 and A2 words first and move to B1, B2 and C1 as your base grows, instead of meeting rare words too early.
