For example, in English, a specific set of 2000 words composes about 80% of the total printed words. Pimsleur courses average 500 words per level (30-lessons).
Word-frequency text analyses indicate that a relatively small core vocabulary accounts for the majority of words spoken in a particular language.
Core vocabulary The Pimsleur method focuses on teaching commonly-used words in order to build up a "core vocabulary". Pimsleur's 1967 memory schedule was as follows: 5 seconds, 25 seconds, 2 minutes, 10 minutes, 1 hour, 5 hours, 1 day, 5 days, 25 days, 4 months, 2 years. The goal of this spaced recall is to help the student move vocabulary into long-term memory. For example, if a student is introduced to the word deux (French for two), then deux is tested every few seconds, then every few minutes, then every few hours, and then every few days. It is a version of retention through spaced repetition. Graduated-interval recall Is a method of reviewing learned vocabulary at increasingly longer intervals. Pimsleur held that the principle of anticipation reflected real-life conversations in which a speaker must recall a phrase quickly. This technique is intended to be a more active way of learning, requiring the student to think before responding. Pimsleur developed a "challenge and response" technique, where a student was prompted to translate a phrase into the target language. Anticipation Language courses commonly require a student to repeat after an instructor, which Pimsleur argued was not an effective way of learning.
