Learn how to improve your English vocabulary, listening, and speaking at the same time using the 3000 most commonly used words in English.
Fortunately, you don’t have to learn them all to become fluent in English. Americans use around 2500 – 3000 of the most common words in their daily lives. If you know these 3000 most common words, you can understand at least 95% of all conversations, e-mails, newspapers, and books.
Sounds great! But what is the most effective way to learn these words?
Focus on example sentences when learning vocabulary. Here’s why?
When it comes to learning English vocabulary, the most important thing
you need to focus on are
example sentences because they help you to improve all your English skills — including vocabulary, listening, speaking, and writing.
If you want to speak English fluently, learn with your ears, not with your eyes
Learning English can be broken down into two parts: input and output. Input consists of reading and listening while output consists of writing and speaking. The more input you get, the more output you can produce. It’s that simple.
Here’s the little secret you probably don’t know yet:
Repetition is the secret to English fluency
If you want to quickly achieve fluency level — to speak English easily, fluently and automatically, you’ll need to do one more thing:
Learn deeply through lots of repetition.
It means that you will need to listen to every example sentence many, many times, until you MASTER it. Don’t listen just one time or a few times. It’s not enough. You will forget it very soon.
You may know how to use a word to make a correct sentence, but here’s the thing: Can you use it quickly, easily, and automatically?
If the answer is no, you need to repeat more. You must listen to that example sentence again and again.
Don’t ignore this simple secret. This is how you will achieve automatically fast speaking.

Modern English is a conglomerate of vocabulary from many different languages and varies widely depending on the country it’s spoken it. Even still, there are a few common words and phrases that English speakers around the globe use on the regular. If you’re learning English, this is a helpful list to refer to for foundational vocabulary.
Words English speakers say all the time
More than 840 million people speak English as their first or second language, which makes it the second most-spoken language in the world after Chinese Mandarin. So if you’re in the process of learning English, don’t fret – many people have successfully done it! And once you learn to speak, you’ll have a world of opportunities and new people you can communicate with.
As with any language, learning English starts with learning the basics: vocabulary. So that you know which ones to prioritise, I’ve broken the most commonly spoken words into different categories.
Pronouns
The majority of sentences in English start with a pronoun to clarify who is the subject. These are:
- I
- you
- he/she/it
- we
- they
To mention something important about “you”: some languages such as German have different words for formal vs informal you (“Sie” for formal and “du” for informal). In English, we only have the word “you” for both situations, but we do distinguish them by using particular words and being more polite.
Common verbs in English
After each subject, then comes a verb. Here are some of the most common verbs in English:
- get
- have
- be
- to
- do
- make
- say
- talk
- walk
- go
- eat
- sleep
- work
- read
- ask
- help
- know
- would
- could
- can
- should
- need
- feel
- become
- leave
- come
- start
- stop
“Get” is infamous for being one of the most flexible words in the whole English language. How you use it depends entirely on the context. To give you a better idea, here are a few examples:
- Can you please get me a coffee? (Here “get” means either bring or make.)
- I totally get you, that makes sense. (Here “get” means understand.)
- I heard someone knocking. Can you please get the door? (Here “get” means open.)
- He got the gift instead of his sister. (Here “get” means receive.)
- I have to get home now, it’s so late! (Here “get” means go.)
For nearly every circumstance, there are alternative verbs for “get”, but if you want to truly sound like a native English speaker, using “get” is much more commonly used, especially when speaking.
Nouns
Nouns are used to describe a person, place. or thing. A few of the most common English nouns are:
- thing
- people
- woman
- man
- child
- family
- dog
- cat
- door
- window
- table
- chair
- kitchen
- bed
- blanket
- dishes
- towel
- shoes
- socks
- pants
- shirt
- dress
- floor
- food
- drinks
- water
My biggest recommendation for learning English nouns is to make sticky notes around the house for each item. Then each time you look at it, you’re reminded of that word. Because you start learning vocabulary according to your surroundings, they’re more familiar and become easier to memorise.
Another pro tip: if you don’t know the word for a noun when speaking to someone, just refer to it as “thing” and try to describe it. Honestly even native English speakers do this all the time when we’re feeling lazy!
Question words
When you want to transform your sentence into a question, you’ll often begin with a question word. Here is a quick overview of English question words:
- why
- where
- who
- how
- when
- which
- whose
- what
Prepositions in English
Prepositions are another essential element of English grammar, because they are combined with many other words to form phrases. The most common prepositions are:
- to
- in
- out
- for
- with
- on
- since
- at
- until
- by
- as
- about
- into
- between
- against
When I worked as an English teacher, one of the most commonly asked questions about prepositions was the difference between until and by in the context of due dates. Here is an example to clarify:
- The students need to turn in their homework by Monday. (Here we’re only stating the fixed deadline.)
- The students have until Monday to turn in their homework. (Here we’re talking about the total time period up until the deadline.)
English Adjectives
Adjectives are the spices of language and English is no exception. Here are a few of the most commonly used adjectives:
- awesome
- wonderful
- easy
- difficult
- hard
- big
- small
- beautiful
- cool
- new
- old
- pretty
- fantastic
By the way, if you’re speaking with an American, always go for the word “awesome”. I am one myself and we use it constantly (probably too much haha).
Miscellaneous English words
There are some popular, miscellaneous filler words that are important to keep in mind as well:
- like
- and
- but
- so
- well
- too
- just
- more
- this
- that
- because
- very
- even
- quite
- may
- maybe
- another
- few
- here
- there
A quick note on “like”: if you’ve watched American TV series like Friends, The Big Bang Theory, or Family Guy, you’ll notice that they use the word “like” all the time. It’s one of the words that is basically pure slang and has a few different meanings. A few examples are:
- I was talking to my friend and he was like “I had such a bad day yesterday”. (Here “like” is another word for “said” and it’s often used in the context of telling a story of a previous conversation.)
- I spoke to my sister yesterday and she was like seriously tired after working so much. (Here “like” means really, as in to emphasise the tiredness.)
- I talked to my boss yesterday to ask for a day off and he said no. Like, how could he be so mean? (Here “like” emphasises the surprising element of the other person’s response.)
In the same manner as “get”, this is another word that becomes clear once you hear how others use it and you become more advanced in your speaking skills.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Studies that estimate and rank the most common words in English examine texts written in English. Perhaps the most comprehensive such analysis is one that was conducted against the Oxford English Corpus (OEC), a massive text corpus that is written in the English language.
In total, the texts in the Oxford English Corpus contain more than 2 billion words.[1] The OEC includes a wide variety of writing samples, such as literary works, novels, academic journals, newspapers, magazines, Hansard’s Parliamentary Debates, blogs, chat logs, and emails.[2]
Another English corpus that has been used to study word frequency is the Brown Corpus, which was compiled by researchers at Brown University in the 1960s. The researchers published their analysis of the Brown Corpus in 1967. Their findings were similar, but not identical, to the findings of the OEC analysis.
According to The Reading Teacher’s Book of Lists, the first 25 words in the OEC make up about one-third of all printed material in English, and the first 100 words make up about half of all written English.[3] According to a study cited by Robert McCrum in The Story of English, all of the first hundred of the most common words in English are of Old English origin,[4] except for «people», ultimately from Latin «populus», and «because», in part from Latin «causa».
Some lists of common words distinguish between word forms, while others rank all forms of a word as a single lexeme (the form of the word as it would appear in a dictionary). For example, the lexeme be (as in to be) comprises all its conjugations (is, was, am, are, were, etc.), and contractions of those conjugations.[5] These top 100 lemmas listed below account for 50% of all the words in the Oxford English Corpus.[1]
100 most common words
A list of 100 words that occur most frequently in written English is given below, based on an analysis of the Oxford English Corpus (a collection of texts in the English language, comprising over 2 billion words).[1] A part of speech is provided for most of the words, but part-of-speech categories vary between analyses, and not all possibilities are listed. For example, «I» may be a pronoun or a Roman numeral; «to» may be a preposition or an infinitive marker; «time» may be a noun or a verb. Also, a single spelling can represent more than one root word. For example, «singer» may be a form of either «sing» or «singe». Different corpora may treat such difference differently.
The number of distinct senses that are listed in Wiktionary is shown in the polysemy column. For example, «out» can refer to an escape, a removal from play in baseball, or any of 36 other concepts. On average, each word in the list has 15.38 senses. The sense count does not include the use of terms in phrasal verbs such as «put out» (as in «inconvenienced») and other multiword expressions such as the interjection «get out!», where the word «out» does not have an individual meaning.[6] As an example, «out» occurs in at least 560 phrasal verbs[7] and appears in nearly 1700 multiword expressions.[8]
The table also includes frequencies from other corpora. Note that as well as usage differences, lemmatisation may differ from corpus to corpus – for example splitting the prepositional use of «to» from the use as a particle. Also the Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA) list includes dispersion as well as frequency to calculate rank.

Building your vocabulary with some of the most common words used in the English language is a great start for your journey in learning this beautiful language.
Not only do these common words expand the English terminology that you know, but they also help you with your English conversation skills since they are indeed words that you hear others use everyday.
If you know 1,000 words, you will be between a functional beginner and conversational level in English. In most of the world’s languages, 500 words will be more than enough to get you through any tourist situations and everyday introductions.
Using everyday common words are the most convenient way to learn English. The more you hear these words, the better it is for you to process and understand them.
And the more you use them, the stronger your English skills become. So it’s a great process of learning from others, and at the same time, learning from yourself, too!
Okay, time to share the list! Remember that with these 1,000 words you’ll be able to ask people how they’re doing, tell them about your day and navigate everyday life situations like shopping and public transit.

ТОП-50 глаголов
Мы составили подборку 50 наиболее часто употребляемых английских глаголов (verbs) в алфавитном порядке. Освоение глаголов — фундамент хорошего словарного запаса английского, так как они позволяют описывать действия, состояния предметов и объектов. С помощью глаголов мы можем выражать время совершения действия, описывать события в настоящем, будущем или прошлом, выражать гипотетическую ситуацию или возможность. Сразу оговорим, в первой колонке глаголы приведены в инфинитиве (начальной форме), а в предложении могут стоять в форме определенного грамматического времени.
