How to say one's vocabulary?
I want to tell someone I new about 4000 of English words, how to use the word 'vocabulary' to express correctly?
1. I have a/the English vocabulary of 4000 words? --- sounds strange.
2. My English vocabulary is around 4000 words??
Or could you give me an correct expression, thanks.I want to tell someone I have* about .......
If you substitute 'an English vocabulary', for 'a English vocabulary', then 1 is okay, as is 2.
You could also say, "I know 4,000 English words", or, "I have a vocabulary of 4000 English words"', or "I have an English vocabulary of 4000 words".
