British English Vocabulary – Intermediate

Congratulations on completing Level 1 and a warm welcome to Level 2 of the British English Pronunciation Course. In Level 2 we will learn more than 2,000 words, in addition to the 2,000-plus words we learnt in Level 1. The words in this level are less common compared to the ones in Level 1, but common enough nonetheless. Words that you might end using in your daily conversations. An average adult knows about 20,000 to 30,000 words, of which about 10% are very common, most of which are quite easily pronounced. Like a, an, the, it, but, sit, go, to, yes, no, up, down, right, left, he, her, him, she, come, go, etc. After completing Level 2, you would have learnt to not only pronounce almost 5,000 words, but also their meanings and usage in sentences, and will be on your way to becoming a proper English speaker. Take your time, there is no hurry. Listen to the pronunciation repeatedly so that you can ingrain it in your brain and not depend on wondering what it sounds like just by looking at how the word is spelt. All the best.
