What is Active Vocabulary?

Active Vocabulary refers to the words you can confidently use in conversation. In contrast, words you understand in text but cannot use in conversation are called Passive Vocabulary.

InstaEnglish is an app designed for those who have already studied and learned the basic 2,000 words necessary for daily conversation as Passive Vocabulary, focusing on training and activating these words into Active Vocabulary.

Why 2,000 words?

Many studies show that roughly 90% of daily conversations can be covered by 2,000 words. That is why we created materials to help you efficiently use these commonly used 2,000 words.

How Is Speaking Speed Measured?

When you answer a question correctly, the time taken to speak the full sentence is automatically recorded. Based on this, your Words Per Minute (WPM) is calculated. You can check your average WPM in your learning records. Aim for 150 WPM, which is the comfortable speaking speed of a native speaker.

Why Instant English Translation?

When speaking, people go through three steps:

1. Conceptualize what you want to say.

2. Formulate your concept into words.

3. Articulate the words as sound.

Instant English translation skips the first step of conceptualizing what to say, allowing you to focus on the second step: formulating your thoughts into words. This is an efficient way to practice and is very effective in overcoming the common challenge of not being able to express what you want to say in English.
