Заучивание написания и произношения иностранных слов

Хорошие результаты дает программа BX Language. См. также Дополнительные английские словари

Программа BX Language acquisition предназначена для заучивания написания и произношения иностранных слов.

Заучивание слов основано на накоплении статистики Ваших ответов на задания программы. За каждое правильно выполненное задание Вы получаете определённое количество баллов. За каждую ошибку баллы с Вас снимаются. В каждом следующем упражнении обязательно будут преобладать задания с наименьшим баллом и некоторое количество новых заданий. При наборе определённого количества баллов задание считается выученным. Вы имеете возможность настройки балльной системы.

[Vladka]

это вариации на тему наиболее встречающихся слов? или я что-то не так понимаю....
когда то стянул пару подобных вещей (вроде Кембридж 1000 и 2000 слов) пытался позаниматься, но фигня это. БЕЗ КОНТЕКСТА- безидейно.
А, если есть карточки, с пояснением, синонимами, примером употребления, тогда большой решпект

[Avla]

Только было решил, что мне все эти слова известны, как вдруг наткнулся на слово plough.
Стал мозгами скрипеть... неужели я не знаю какого-либо слова из top1000???
Потом сдался, заглянул в словарь.
Потом посмотрел вот здесь:
http://wordcount.org/main.php
Оно там идёт под номером 11335!
Как оно попало в топ 1000? ерунда какая-то...

P.S. Вполне допускаю, что это топ1000 какого-нибудь 18 века, когда для 90% людей основное занятие было сельское хозяйство.

P.S.2 Да и ornament слово явно не из первой тысячи.

Насколько я понимаю, бессмысленно это. Если человек готовится, учит язык и его уровень выше Intermedate то эти слова он по любому будет знать. Я сейчас специально не учу слова. Только те которые постоянно появляются при чтении и прослушивании подкастов. А учить слова по списку - хорошо на начальном накоплении словарного запаса. Сейчас иногда вылазиют заученные слова (причем в мало-употребимом контесте).
Приходится переучиваться.

Кстати, никогда не ленюсь залезть в словарь.

[Avla]

Нет, на мой взгляд это очень полезно.
Есть такой список Oxford 3000.
Вот он:
http://www.oup.com/elt/catalogue/tea...000_list?cc=ru
Там 3000 слов.
Но отобраны они не по частоте употребления, а потому что их полезно знать. Их специально подбирали специалисты.
Например там есть слово heel, которое хотя и употребляется весьма редко, но несомненно полезно. Когда оно нужно, без него не обойтись. В общем, IMHO есть смысл в том чтобы выучить все слова из списка Oxford 3000. Или точнее говоря, проверить, нет ли там незнакомых слов.

[Grifffin]

Проверить можно. У меня полный Oxford-ский словарь. Эти "особые" слова там специально отмеченны. Сколько им пользуюсь, редко появляется незнаомое слово...

Тут вопрос немного об уровне знания, или подготовки к языку.

[Vladka]

точно, а я его Кембриджем выше обозвал

Я сам Intermediate. Не знал или знал нетвёрдо ~666 слов из GSL . Как минимум раз слово выученное из списка (leather) помогло ответить на вопрос в листенинге.

Да.

Без контекста - может быть. Но как вы без контекста узнаете что такое duck? Гусь, Индейка? По-моему, на поиск слов в словаре тратится слишком много времени. Уж лучше их запомнить. Безидейно.

Карточки - только со словарным переводом, транскрипцией и неправильными формами глаголов. Наподобие того что я делал раньше для себя. Если кому нужно, я бы мог сварганить (у меня софт есть), как только появится свободная минута.

[Grifffin]

Я же не говорю что они не нужны. Просто по мере изучения языка эти слова будут вам встречаться чаще и вероятнее всего вы их запомните. Т.е. при определенном уровне знания вы их УЖЕ будете знать. Поэтому учить их специально смысла нет.

Правда проверить себя по этому списку никто не мешает.

[duxa]

Откуда же я буду их знать, если я не буду их учить . Из контекста далеко не всегда всё понятно.
