Word Trainer Russian English is designed specifically for the iPhone. It’s primary use is to support those English speakers who want to master Russian or Russian speakers who want to learn English. Spending time with this app is the most efficient way in making headway in learning English or Russian in the quickest possible manner. A modern language can have 150,000 words or more, far too large a number to master in a reasonable amount of time. Statistical analysis of modern texts however has shown that knowledge of the first thousand most frequently used words will enable you to recognize nearly 65% of the word forms in a modern text and that is enough to understand the gist of a book or a newspaper article. The WordTrainer app guides you in mastering these 1000 words in the most efficient manner possible in an estimated time frame of 50 hours for younger people, preferable distributed over many short intervals, with the most important words first. Since the iPhone is always at hand of the owner, the device is extremely useful in exploiting small time gaps, like in the train or bus or five minutes before the evening news, before going to sleep, during lunch breaks, etc. The app will register which words are learned, making sure you will not be confronted with them again, resulting in an ever decreasing size of the word list until your are done!
