http://testyourvocab.com/?r=200 こんな人もいるんだね。 > Most adults fall in the range 20,000–35,000, with the exact median score being 27,123 words. と書いてるし、非ネイティブで20000超えたらいい方と理解してもよさそうだな。 >we still don't have enough data for complete ysis by age or education level, especially because we have very little data for participants under 15. とも書かれてるし、>>22が書いてるような推測はあたってそうだね。
>>31 確かに >A university graduate will have a vocabulary of around 20,000 word >families (Goulden, Nation and Read, 1990). ふむふむとおもったの The suggestion that learners should directly learn vocabulary from cards, to a large degree out of context, may be seen by some teachers as a step back to outdated methods of learning and not in agreement with a communicative approach to language learning. This may be so, but the research evidence supporting the use of such an approach as one part of a vocabulary learning program is strong. だけど Learning from lists or word cards is only an initial stage of learning a particular word (see Schmitt and Schmitt, 1995 for further information). There will always be a need to have extra exposure to the words through reading, listening and speaking as well as extra formal study of the words, their collocates, associations, different meanings, grammar and so on. This shows a complementary relationship between contextualized learning of new words and the decontextualized learning from word cards. スキミングしかしてないけど、学習方法にも示唆的なことが書かれてるね。

>>33 The good news for second language learners and second language teachers is that a small number of the words of English occur very frequently and if a learner knows these words, that learner will know a very large proportion of the running words in a written or spoken text. でもそのあと少数の単語の活用でなんとかなるみたいなこと書いてあるよ。 やみくもに語彙を増やす意味ないよね。
>>34 We are now ready to answer the question "How much vocabulary does a second language learner need?" Clearly the learner needs to know the 3,000 or so high frequency words of the language. These are an immediate high priority and there is little sense in focusing on other vocabulary until these are well learned.
>>44 I have no idea what you are talking about. If you are better at English, please go ahead and write that in English. >>45 その論文と、本は、ちょっと違う物なんだよね。 論文はPaul Nation と Robert Waringの共著で、 本の方はPaul Nation一人で書いたもの。出した時期も 違うと思う。 でも、本の方でも「3000語から4000語以上の物に時間を大量に 使う必要はない」といっているし、「この2000語は数え方によって 変わってくるので、これに含まれない物でも頻出な物はある。 きっちり割り切れる物ではない。」という趣旨の事をいっている。 数百ページの本を数行でまとめるのは無理だから、「抜粋の超訳」 なので、疑問があったら、原典にあたって欲しい。
>>22やってみた。 Your total vocabulary size is estimated to be: 23,500 words 単語は結構自信があったが、知らない単語が山ほど出てきて驚いたw、 なので結果はダメだろうと思ったがまあまあでほっとした。 この問題を作った人の顔が見たい、すげえ。
>>62 あとたったの3800で1万だ。 >>63-64 http://www.wordhacker.com/en/article/vocabularysizewordlists.htm The major theme of this paper has been that we need to have clear sensible goals for vocabulary learning. Frequency information provides a rational basis for making sure that learners get the best return for their vocabulary learning effort. This does not necessarily mean that learnA?ers must be provided with large vocabulary lists as the major source of their vocabulary learning. It does mean however that course designers should have lists to refer to when they consider the vocabulary component of a language course, and teachers need to have reference lists to judge whether a particular word deserves attention or not, and whether a text is suitable for a class. という意味で、優れたリストだと思うけどなあ。9000までは全部目を 通したけど、その辺りまでは何を読んでも、ファンタジーでも新聞でも 技術系の物でも、出てくるので、いつも9000まではいいと言ってるけど。 1000ずつに分かれてるし。 そこから上はわざわざあのリストで覚える意味は、俺も特には感じない。
>>82 嘘はいかん OVER the years many establishment worthies have agreed to chair inquiries for governments, only to see their conclusions sink without trace, ignored even by their patron. Not so Sir John Vickers. His Independent Commission on Banking published its initial report on April 11th, to the kind of reception normally reserved for pyrotechnic probes into wars. Debate over its proposals dominated the airwaves; the commission even won the accolade of seeing its website crash under overwhelming traffic. これ和訳できる?
