Recent Updates to Known Word Thresholds

Unofficial Known Word Thresholds for most languages in LingQ:

Green figures: Confirmed
Black figures: Extrapolated

Comments:

  • Russian: Somewhat smaller distance from Adv 1 to Adv 2 in % (compared to other languages)
  • Bulgarian: Beg 1 appears too low, relatively to the other threasholds
  • Indonesian, Cantonese and Malay: Distances between levels (in %) are somewhat smaller for the lower levels, compared to other languages. Apparently these languages use the middle category of the ‘old System’
  • All other languages seem to follow a similar pattern (regarding the distances between the levels in %). Therefore the extrapolated figures should match or at least be very close.
