How many words do you know?  500?  1000?  10000?  Does it even matter?  You’re learning a language…you just want to be able to speak.  Well, if that’s the case, you’re going to need to know words.  And let’s be real, if you’re not having fluent conversations, it probably has nothing to do with you not understanding English grammar.  Besides, native English speakers use very simple grammar in daily conversations.  More often than not, not being fluent is caused by the lack of words in that brain of yours.  But not to worry, this problem is fixable.

Modern language learning enthusiasts…you know, these Internet Polyglots, talk a lot about word frequency and this idea of your first 1000 words.  Let’s talk a little about where that comes from.

All About You

En el episodio de hoy hablo sobre un fenómeno presente en muchos idiomas, la repetición de palabras o conceptos. En este episodio te cuento porque usamos la repetición en español, qué tipos de redundancias existen y comparto algunas redundancias muy comunes, que es posible que incluso hayas escuchado (o usado) en algún momento.

Es un tema muy interesante que espero que disfrutes.

No te olvides de decirme qué opinas tú sobre el tema en los comentarios o visitando mi Instagram, ¿te habías dado cuenta de este fenómeno en español? ¿Tú usas las redundancias?

También me encantaría que me dijeras si en tu país existe este tipo de repetición.
