حسب دراسة قامة بها جامعة اكسفورد University of Oxford فإن أول 25 كلمة تشكل ثلث الكلمات المستخدمة في اللغة الأنجليزية و الـ 100 تشكل حوالي النصف
تم إجراء هذه الأبحاث حول مليار كلمة ( مليار كلمة مطبوعة أو منطوقة بحيث تتكرر الكلمة آلاف المرات)
و بالتالي فإن حفظ هذه الكلمات تشكل قفزة كبيرة من يتعلم هذه اللغة
