When visiting another country and taking our electronic goods we may find ourselves checking plugs and voltage, looking for an adaptor and trying to avoid blowing a fuse. Neil and Georgina talk about how electrical systems differ from country to country and teach you related vocabulary along the way.
다른 국가를 방문하고 전자 제품을 구할 때 플러그와 전압을 확인하고 어댑터를 찾고 퓨즈를 날려 버리지 않으려 시도합니다 Neil과 Georgina는 전기 시스템이 국가마다 어떻게 다른지 이야기하고 관련 어휘를 가르칩니다.
새내기할배 블로그가 제안하는 영어단어 암기법은 기본적으로 문장을 통해 암기하는 것입니다. 그래서 설명하는 모든 단어마다 본문도 함께 제시됩니다. 그러나 새로 나온다고 해서 모든 단어를 무한정 암기할 수는 없습니다. 그래서 암기해야 해야 할 단어와 이해만 하고 넘어갈 단어를 구분하는 지혜가 필요합니다. [BBC Leaning English] 6 Minute English - Shocking facts about electricity에 수록된 영어단어 수는
- 고유명사를 제외하고 총 374개 입니다.
- 이중 OxFord 3000단어와 일치하는 영어단어는 299개로 80%가 해당됩니다.
- 미국의 WordFrequency 사이트에서 조사한 Top 5,000내 포함하는 영어단어는 309개로 83%가 해당됩니다.
- Naver 사전에서 [★★/매우 중요]로 분류된 영어단어는 317개로 85%가 해당됩니다.
- 세개의 기준에 모두 일치하는 영어단어는 모두 289개로 77%의 싱크로율을 보입니다.
이들 기준에 해당되는 영어단어 중 암기해야 할 단어의 수준을 각자 정하고 그 수준의 영어단어가 나오면 문장과 함꼐 암기하는 습관을 들이면 영어단어공부에 큰 성과를 거둘 수 있을 것입니다
본 글은 Word Frequency 기준 2000순위 이하를 제외한 단어만을 수록하고 있습니다.
