Word l ists are important because they provide you with a basic stock of words that you can use in everyday life. Every list entry comes with the English translation plus a clear indication of where the accent falls, so you never risk getting your pronunciation wrong! Of course, you can also listen to the accompanying audio file! Listening to it
repeatedly is of paramount importance, as the human brain is pre-programmed to learn by hearing rather than by reading!
