Words

15. 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.
