cualquier cosa que te guste. Aprovecha
cualquier momento! No importa que al
principio no entiendas. ESCUCHA,
ESCUCHA, ESCUCHA!

Sabes por qu es difcil aprender palabras en ingls?


1) Para un hispanohablante, la gran mayora de las palabras en ingls son sonidos ininteligibles que no
significan absolutamente nada. Si la palabra nueva te resulta familiar solo se puede deber a dos motivos: es
una palabra de origen latino o la has escuchado en los medios de comunicacin.
Recuerda: Dado que el ingls es un idioma de origen germnico, muy alejado del espaol, no se asimila un
nuevo sonido hasta que no se repite unas diez, a veinte veces, hablando. Algunas palabras incluso tienen
que llegar a repetirse unas cien veces para que se queden grabadas en la memoria.
2) Hay, al menos, dos tipos de vocabularios. El vocabulario del ingls hablado y el del ingls escrito. Esto
quiere decir que hay palabras que lees pero que no se suelen usar en ingls hablado y palabras que escuchas
pero que no se suelen escribir. Las palabras de ingls hablado son las ms difciles de aprender porque una
gran mayora no son de origen latino; son "phrasal verbs", o palabras de origen germnico.
Recuerda: Es mejor empezar aprendiendo el vocabulario del ingls hablado ya que ser el que ms vas a
necesitar en el da a da.
3) El nmero de palabras que hay que aprender para hablar con cierta fluidez ronda las tres mil. Aprender
tres mil palabras es difcil y toma tiempo, por tanto, necesitaremos determinacin a prueba de fuego.
Recuerda: Para incrementar tu vocabulario, determinacin a prueba de fuego; esto significa planificacin y
constancia.
4) Por cada palabra, hay que aprender "pronunciacin" y "deletreo" (spelling). Si no sabes escribir una
palabra, no importa demasiado porque siempre puedes buscarla en un diccionario, pero si no sabes
pronunciarla realmente no sabes esa palabra.
Recuerda: Solo puedes decir que sabes una palabra si puedes pronunciarla y colocarla correctamente en una
frase. Consejo: Bscate ahora mismo alguien para hablar.
Cmo superaremos todas estas barreras?
Slo hay una manera: con mucha determinacin y un buen mtodo. Suponiendo que ya tenemos la
determinacin, veamos los mtodos.
Una de las mejores maneras de aprender vocabulario es viendo pelculas en ingls con subttulos. Ves la
imagen, escuchas cmo suena y ves cmo se escribe.
Ni que decir tiene que otra fantstica manera de aprender vocabulario es cantando.
Otra buena frmula es hablando. Cuando no sabes cmo decir algo, la necesidad de comunicarte te lleva a
buscar las palabras que necesitas para expresarte. As que piensa durante el da frases en espaol y piensa
cmo las diras en ingls. Si tienes dudas pregunta a un profesor.
Otra forma eficaz de incrementar tu vocabulario es leyendo. La gran ventaja de la lectura es que
aprendes las nuevas palabras en un contexto determinado. La desventaja es que no sabes cmo suena la
palabra. Por ello, la lectura debe combinarse siempre con prcticas de conversacin. Tambin son buenos
los audio-books para leer y escuchar al mismo tiempo.
Por ltimo, se aprende vocabulario estudiando y echando mano de todos los recursos que tenemos a
mano: diccionarios, internet,trucos para memorizar, juegos, crucigramas (crosswords), el ahorcado
(hangman), leyendo las noticias en ingls, etc
Cmo recordar vocabulario nuevo?
1. Traduciendo la palabra a tu idioma. Por ejemplo: coche car (ingls).
2. Describindola en espaol. Por ejemplo: vehculo con motor y de cuatro ruedas para transportar
personas.
3. Haciendo un dibujo.
4. Ponindola en contexto. Por ejemplo: Mi coche se ha estropeado y tengo que llevarlo al taller.
5. Colocndola dentro de un grupo lxico. Por ejemplo: coche, camin, moto, etc.

1.If a number is in the range 21 to 99, and


the second digit is not zero, we should write
the number as two words separated by a
hyphen:

56

47

fifty-six

2.Numbers over 100 are generally written in


figures. If you say them aloud or want to
write them in words rather than figures you
put 'and' in front of the number expressed by
the last two figures. For example:

Eg.

505

five hundred and five

Note:
The British use 'and' before tens and ones but
the Americans usually leave the 'and' out.

Eg.

602

six hundred and two

(AmE: six hundred two)


3. Numbers between 1000 and 1,000,000 is
usually said or written in words as:

1,704

one thousand, seven hundred

and four
(AmE: one thousand, seven hundred
four)

4,365

four thousand, three hundred

and sixty-five
(AmE: four thousand, three hundred
sixty-five)
4.Four-figure numbers ending in 00 can also
be said or written as a number of hundreds.
Eg.

1900

nineteen hundred

Years We normally say a year in two parts. In the case of

5.Expressing millions.

years ending in "00", we say the second part in "hundred":

Eg.

1978 nineteen seventy-eight


1706 seventeen hundred and six (or 'seventeen oh six')
1900 nineteen hundred
There are two ways of saying years ending in "01" to "09"
before 2000.

1901 nineteen oh one or nineteen hundred and one


2000 two thousand
2009 two thousand and nine (AmE: two thousand
nine).
Post-2010 dates are often said as normal

forty-seven

2,572,285

two million five

hundred (and) seventy-two thousand


two hundred (and)eighty-five
Note:
AmE:
BrE:

a thousand million = a billion


a thousand million = milliard.

Note: no final S after dozen, hundred,


thousand, million and billion

five hundred pounds


seventy thousand years

2010 would be twenty ten
