It includes vocabulary from the Council of Europe’s Waystage (1990) specification and other vocabulary which has been shown by corpus evidence to be high-frequency.  \nThe list covers vocabulary appropriate to this level of English and includes receptive vocabulary (words that the candidate is expected to understand but which is not the focus of a question), and productive vocabulary (words that the candidate needs to know in order to answer a question) .  \nThe list does not provide an exhaustive list of all words which appear on the KET and KET for Schools question papers and candidates should not confine their study of vocabulary to the list alone.  \nHow the List is Updated  \nThe vocabulary of English changes over time, with words being added and other words falling into disuse. In order to maintain its currency, the list is updated on an annual basis by the addition and removal of words, using a corpus-based approach. Suggested additions to the wordlist are collated and the frequency of these words is obtained by reference to established corpora (electronic databases) . The corpora in question represent receptive and productive language in general contexts. The main corpora used for the validation of the KET Vocabulary List are:  \n􀁸 the Cambridge Learner Corpus (CLC) which includes over 20 million words of written learner English;  \n􀁸 the British National Corpus (BNC) which includes 100 million words of written and spoken nativespeaker data.  \nOrganisation of the List  \n􀁸 Word sets  \nSome categories of words a learner at this level might be expected to know are not included in the alphabetical list but are listed separately. Words formed with common affixes, some compounds and words from some common word sets, e.g. days of the week are described below and in Appendix 1. Although some ‘grammar words’(pronouns, modals, etc. ) are included, the Language Specifications section of the KET and KET for Schools Handbooks ([available from www.cambridgeesol.org](available from www.cambridgeesol.org)) should be consulted for a more complete listing.  \n􀁸 Exemplification  \nExample phrases and sentences showing how words might be used are given only where words with different meanings need to be constrained e.g. the use of bank is followed by‘I changed my money in a bank’ [i.e. is](i.e. is) limited to the idea of a financial institution: candidates are not expected to know other meanings, such as ‘a river bank’.  \n􀁸 Prefixes and Suffixes  \nA list of possible prefixes and suffixes is provided in Appendix 2, and these may be combined with the vocabulary items in the list as appropriate. Words with an affix which is not included in the appendix are listed separately in the alphabetical list.  \n􀁸 Compound Words  \nCompound words are not included in the list where both individual words are present and the meaning of the compound is literal and transparent, e.g. coursebook, school children, shopping centre.  \n􀁸 Multi-word Verbs  \nAll multi-word (or phrasal) verbs that a KET or KET for Schools candidate might be expected to know are included in the list. These verbs include ‘literal’ verbs (i.e. where the meaning is transparent) e.g. sit down , go out and ‘non-literal’ verbs e.g. look after, get up.  \n􀁸 Topic Lists  \nIn Appendix 3 words have been grouped together under common KET and/or KET for Schools themes, such as ‘House and Home’,‘Work and Jobs’ and ‘Food and Drink’.  \nUnsuitable Topics  \nCambridge ESOL examinations must not co","cbCaijjPNxNh2AOr","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijjPNxNh2AOr","pdf",427038,28,"English","# Introduction to the KET Vocabulary List\n# Background to the List\n# How the List is Updated\n# Organisation of the List\n## Word sets\n## Exemplification\n## Prefixes and Suffixes\n## Compound Words\n## Multi-word Verbs\n## Topic Lists\n# Unsuitable Topics\n# Personal Vocabulary\n# Abbreviations\n# Summary of Points to be noted\n# Vocabulary List (A...All)","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the KET Vocabulary List for teachers?\",\"answer\":\"It gives teachers a guide to the vocabulary needed when preparing students for the KET and KET for Schools examinations, based on the vocabulary level appropriate to these tests.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the vocabulary list updated over time?\",\"answer\":\"The list is updated annually by adding and removing words using a corpus-based approach, with frequency and validation supported by established corpora such as the Cambridge Learner Corpus and the British National Corpus.\"},{\"question\":\"What types of vocabulary organisation are included in the list?\",\"answer\":\"The organisation covers word sets, example phrases and sentences to constrain meanings, lists of prefixes and suffixes, rules on compound words, inclusion of multi-word verbs, and topic-based groupings in the appendices.\"}]","Key English Test (KET) Vocabulary List - Updated June 2009 | PDF",1790847869,71]
