Welcome to The Oleander Press
The Oleander Press is delighted to announce the imminent publication of the latest in its ground-breaking Oleander Key Words series– English Key Words. Produced in response to demand from language schools and individual tutors of English as a Foreign Language, English Key Words continues the Oleander Key Words' tradition of a frequency- based vocabulary list presented in easy-learn groups of twenty from which many more can be derived. The first 10 words are so common that they account for 25% of total occurrences in a huge lexical universe; the first hundred account for 50%; and the first thousand for 75%. The full 2000 key words represent 85% of all English words in a corpus of over 10 million. Read more here.
English joins the growing list of
languages covered by the Key Words methodology pioneered by
Oleander in 1984. See the full series here.
