The English vocabulary glossary presented here has been compiled mainly for the benefit of students studying examinations at the levels: B1, B2, and C1. However, any student of English from a pre-intermediate level to a good intermediate level will find these word lists useful.
Many students of English as a foreign language in classroom situations receive a lot of emphasis on the study of grammar and general subject text content. However, in daily life in an English speaking country, language use includes the need for vocabulary of the everyday objects found around us. This vocabulary includes objects in the home, garden, shops, street, at work...
The English word lists are arranged in categories such as kitchen utensils, clothes, fruit, countries, etc. There are translations given in three other languages: French, German and Spanish.
For practice of the correct pronunciation (UK English), click on the link at the top of the word list. Listen to the recording. The words in the recording are in the same order as in the list. Stop the recording as many times as you need and repeat the words so as to get a good pronunciation.
If you do not know any of the English words in the list, it is preferable to try to memorise seven words at a time. However, most students will know some or several words, in which case you could try studying the complete list in one go.
To help reinforce your long-term memory, come back to the same lists in a few days time and revise the list again.
