The Longman Defining Vocabulary From Longman Dictionary (1988). Spellings have been anglicized. 2197 words, 10 prefixes, 39 suffixes. This is the set of words which the Longman English Dictionary uses to express all its definitions. As such, it may be a useful source of basic vocabulary for the designer of an artificial language. WORD CLASS LABELS If a word has a specific word class label it is used in definitions only in the word class shown. Otherwise the word may be used in any of its usual word classes. A = Adjective Av = Adverb C = Conjunction D = Determiner P = Preposition Pd = Predeterminer Pn = Pronoun N = Noun V = Verb DEFINING VOCABULARY a, ability, about, above AvP, abroad, absence, absent A,

这样学习没有兴趣 是一种负担 而且效率不高 我们学习中文的时候可没学语法 背单词就会讲话了 无数实例表明 强烈的好奇渴望或在一种环境下才会驱动着影响着语言学习 语法背单词过于机械化 还是建议多读多看英文书籍与电影 这是一个案例 类似的有很多 我们应该这样做的 http://www.znonline.net/html/kaoshi/yingyukaoshi/2009/1204/24052.html PS:好妈妈胜过好老师这本书真的很好 Tsinghua 的老师写的 思路反传统 十分具有价值
死記硬背對小孩子沒趣味呀。試試Rosetta Stone軟件。 罗赛塔石碑软件文章汇总 http://www.read.org.cn/html/404-rosetta-stone-all.html http://www.verycd.com/topics/2750727/ http://www.verycd.com/topics/2793461/ 外语学习的真实方法及误区 http://www.douban.com/group/topic/6767868/ 罗塞达石碑（Rosetta Stone）一词原指一块致使人类破解了古埃及文语言的特殊石头。1799年拿破仑远征埃及时，他手下的一个士兵偶然在尼罗河河口的小城罗塞达附近，发现了一块石碑。石碑是黑色玄武岩，高 114 公分，厚 28 公分，宽 72 公分。这块石碑是公元前196年底比斯祭司为歌颂埃及国王托勒密五世即位而制作的。石碑上的文字非常奇特：上面刻的是古埃及的象形文字，中部是古埃及的俗体文字，下面则是古希腊文，用这3种不同的文字记述相同的赞美词。于是法国的埃及学家商博良在19世纪初用它做“钥匙”破解了古埃及象形文字。用这个词命名外语学习软件真是很妙。 该体系的设计原理就是典型的“看图识音”，当然远不止“看图识音”这么简单就能概括它。目前已经有几十个语言的学习系统了。它的使用过程是： 1．程序会每次给四个不同的画面，大家猜测听到的“声音”可能是哪个画面。如果是真是零基础，有75%可能会猜错。但没关系，猜错了也是猜了，系统会给你一个回馈，让你知道是否对。正确的反馈声音美妙，同时出现一个小笑脸符号以鼓励；错误的话“嘣”的一声很难听，再给个小哭脸。猜错了换，最多四次，总会对嘛。大家把自己的情绪调整好，准备随时接受鼓励。 2．第二轮四个图象出现，会包含前一轮的一两个图象。因为你刚猜对过，所以有印象，用排除法，很容易猜到新声音对应的画面，然后进下一轮。 3．该程序会自动按一个科学的重复和替换次序，不断重复，变换和推出新图片。你会越猜越快，越来越会猜。关键点就是随时观察图象，把它和听到的声音一起印在大脑中。 但象所有的“单一”产品的通病一样，它把自己包装成一个“感冒药” ，试图用一个方法解决所有阶段的问题，当然是不可能的。而正是这一点，使它受到了广泛的批评和质疑，以至于降低了它的信誉。本人认为，它在我们说的早期（Early Stage）中使用，甚至到提高期的开始部分，它是非常出色的解决方案。当然，正是因为它所犯的毛病，所以有些问题，不应该完全按它说的做，而且开始阶段的“名词图片”太少了。另外大家在这阶段，不要试图说，同时不要打开字幕，把“说”和“阅读”练习部分统统跳过。大家最多在听时小声重复一下就好。再有就是大家不要“想中文”。（所以建议大家尽量不用中文菜单的界面，它可选用英文界面） 这样几十小时一个级就能完。大家一定不要拖，非得“全会”不可那就麻烦了。觉得70分以上就好了。第二级如果从零基础直接这么上来有点费力，但有一点基础的同学没问题。一共两个月，每天也就一小时吧，我们的（Early Stage）就成功了。（这要靠以前传统学法，非一年不可。）
推荐小学生原版词典 http://www.amazon.com/Scholastic-Ch...0545218586/ref=pd_sim_b_1/185-9278772-0997000 Scholastic Children's Dictionary: (2010 Edition) 京东网只卖70多人民币，特便宜。无论纸张还是内容，绝佳。插图也漂亮。收词号称3万。据我统计，也就一万5左右，但这一万5是最实用的单词。 再推荐一本原版主题式插图词典： Oxford Picture Dictionary Interactive 我还有Longman "WORD BY WORD"， 电子版及音频。如果您需要，我可以发给您。
谢谢v_v_sun, konit, Toby! 这段时间我们家小学生在使用金太阳背单词： http://word.kingsunsoft.com/ 它的主要好处是每个单词都带有动画。共94个课时，暑假前背完。然后到了暑假再说。你们提供的资料我将认真研究，据此制订计划。
推荐： 1，学习方法总结： 《站在17位英语名师的肩膀上》这本书不错； 2，硬件： 卡西欧E-B800 http://www.casio.com.cn/dic/product/E-B800/index.html 不必再买任何纸版的辞典，全部是权威正版。什么家教和培训班都不要去了。 3，学习网站： 大耳朵英语 http://www.ebigear.com/ 应有尽有。有些美国财经政治新闻我都从这里看。
我二十多岁又重新学过这个Weekly Reader Learning System,觉得不错^_^ 美国初中课程自学系统/Mastering Middle School 美国高中课程自学系统/ Mastering High School 现在淘宝上还有卖光盘的~ 还有elementary school~ 初中孩子也还可以玩elementary school的教学软件，美国有好几家公司出的，淘宝上就有两三种。我自己买来玩儿过，后来送人了~
英语方面，推荐webster's vocabulary builder，当时找到这个书的时候，有一种进入了一个真实细微的英语世界的感觉。我觉得这个书的作者和samuel Johnson一样，是那种真的对语言文字有敏感的辨别力和丰富的想象力的人。中国市面上教英语的书，普遍夹生；而美国市面上教英语的书里，这个书的作者又傲视其他速成词汇书的作者了。找一个领域里顶尖的作者，跟ta学习对这个领域的整体的taste是非常重要的。作者对语言的感觉特别值得学习。 豆瓣里有个帖子讲此书的例句https://book.douban.com/review/4873559/ --------------------------------------------------------------- 还有那种带词源的词典，韦氏大砖头，牛津什么的都有词源。 有的人的头脑特点适合观察单词真正的相互关系，就适合用词源学词。单词的演变，和彼此之间的关系，才是单词系统真实存在的内在规律。希腊拉丁字根是一方面。英语本身土生词汇也是很有特点，str开头的好多词都和扭转的意思有关，pl开头的好多词都和上下运动有关。。。应该还有这方面研究，我是自己背词的时候发现了一些。 另外，听得东西特别重要。这个有很多研究支持，听得关键在于分辨出细微的声音变化，不用管词句意思，抓到声音的细微处最重要。婴儿到幼儿逐渐失去分辨母语之外，其他语言中的某些语音细节的能力。但我觉得其实长大之后有的人也能训练出来。 在年龄小，有时间的条件下，学到什么技能都不是最重要的，重要的还是发现自己头脑处理信息的的真正内在特点。 国外孩子好多有特别好的图书馆。少年时期广泛自由地暴露在各种知识中比较重要。看过一个人写的小孩儿的故事，我特别羡慕作者家的孩子，能从小自由地在图书馆里找书~ https://www.douban.com/note/519123667/
推荐norman lewis 的word power easy。不过这本书是美式英语。如果开始学英语的时候就发现这本书，可以少走很多弯路。 另外，注意掌握发音系统，就是直接通过单词的拼写就读出来而不是通过音标的能力（包括直接根据听到的读音就拼写出来的能力，包括未认识过的单词，只根据读音根据发音系统的规律就可以拼写出来单词），这个可以算是我英语学习的教训得出来的。
我也用过word power made easy^o^ 淘宝有专门卖一些流行国外小书的复印版的，https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.18.Efd3rp&id=40683003048&ns=1&abbucket=12#detail 就是这套红绿黄白四本小书，除了红的一本，其余三本都非常有用~ 韦氏系列里的还是更好些，作者都是行内真高手，术业有专攻啊~韦氏字根，和韦氏同义词反义词字典都很重要，准备去国外读中学、本科的话都很有必要好好学这两本
