The number of words in the Eng
lish language has never been &C
curately estimated. 1t would be
almost impossible to do so, for the
language is being constantly en-
riched by the addition of new
words. The Standard dictionary
is said TO contain 300, 600 words
and the Century 225.000. In his
various plays Shakespeare used
about 1900 words. Milton used
only about half as many in his
writings. A person of culture and
education has a speaking vocabu-
larry of about 5000 words; an ordi-
nary person uses from 1000 to
j, 900 words. 1t is said that every
person has three vocabularies.
The largest is the reading vocabu
larry, which is the words of which
he knows the meaning and which
convey ideas to his mind when seen
in print. The second largest is the
writing vocabulary, or the words
he uses in written thought. The
is the speaking vocahu-
larry, or the words he uses in con-
versation.
