According to some studies, native speakers know roughly 15,000 to 20,000 word families. By this,
they mean a root word and all its variants. For example, speak, speaking, spoke etc. These studies
suggest that by learning the most common 800 to 1,000 root words and variations, you can learn to speak a
language quickly and effectively. To follow dialogue in movies or TV, you’ll need around 3,000
root words. For a novel or newspaper, this increases to roughly 8,000.
