Making Things Better for You!

Nation and Waring state that the word ‘the’ is so common that 7% of the words written on a page are repetitions of the word ‘the’.

After reading ‘A Clockwork Orange’ which contains 241 ‘nadsat’ words (invented language) repeated on average 15 times, students were tested on the meaning of these words & the average score was 76%. Students learnt the words from context. Saragi, Nation, Meister (1978)

Nagy & Herman (1987) claimed that children between grades three and twelve (US grade levels) learn up to 3000 words a year. It is thought that only a small percentage of such learning is due to direct vocabulary instruction, the remainder being due to acquisition of words from reading.
