Download or read book English Vocabulary Boost Top 1000 Words written by Ben Kaiser and published by Boost Your English Vocubulary. This book was released on 2019-03-25 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series of books focusses on rapid progress in learning English. Becoming fluent and having a good working knowledge of the language is most likely your goal and you will need systems to achieve this goal. These books contain systematically organised vocabulary to assist you. The average adult English speaker has a vocabulary of approximately 20,000 words that they know well and use and a further 15,000 to 20,000 words that they can recognise and know the meaning of when they encounter them. By using these resources to become familiar with the most frequently used words in the English language you will be able to concentrate your learning efforts where they will pay the most return. The first one or two thousand words will comprise the bulk of most books, articles and newspapers but the 35,000th piece of vocabulary for an English speaker will only be encountered quite rarely. Therefore it is well worth your while to concentrate your learning efforts on becoming familiar with these 1,000 most frequently encountered words.
