About This Word List

The words in this list are here because they do a lot of work in English.

They may not be the most frequent words but they are the most useful.

You will see that there are many words which begin with "S", so give extra attention to those words.

Make use of this list whenever you can, but it is not put here for learning.

It will be much easier to learn from the examples.

It is the list in each unit that you should give attention to each day, at least once.

A computer translation of the English words as used here.

The words are listed in alphabet letter order.
