Előszó

A Lextra alap- és kiegészítő szókincset tartalmazó

tematikus gyűjteménye a legújabb felmérések

alapján azt a lexikális minimumot tartalmazza,

amely az eredményes produktív és receptív kom

munikációhoz szükséges.

Angol nyelvből két olyan régebbi korpusz létezik,

amelynek alapján az eddigi gyakorisági szójegy

zékeket készítették: a Brown-korpusz (Francis and

Kucera) az amerikai angol nyelv és a Lancaster-

Oslo/Bergen-korpusz a brit angol nyelv részére

(Hofland and johanson, 1982). Mindkét korpusz

egymillió szót tartalmaz és kizárólag 1961-ben

megjelent szövegeken alapul.

A Lextra az első olyan szókincsgyűjtemény, amely

a 2001-ben megjelent Leech, Rayson és Wilson

gyakorisági jegyzékére épül, amelynek alapja is

mételten a brit nemzeti korpusz, amely 1984 és

1994 közötti szóbeli és írásbeli szövegekből merít.Ez a korpusz 100 millió szót tartalmaz, és lénye

gesen aktuálisabb, mint a két korábbi. Ezzel ez az

angol tematikus szókincsgyűjtemény megbíz

hatóbb és aktuálisabb minden más piacon lévő

alap- és kiegészítő szókincset tartalmazó gyűjte

ménynél.

A nyelvtanulók számára ez az összefüggés háromkérdés miatt fontos:

1. Miért fontos tényező az idegen nyelv tanulásá

ban a szó előfordulási gyakorisága?

2. Mi az alapja a Leech és munkatársai által

2001-ben összeállított gyakorisági szójegyzéknek,

amely e könyv alap- és kiegészítő szókincsét képezi?

3. Hogyan használjuk ezt a tematikus

szókincsgyűjteményt?

s A szó előfordulási gyakorisága mint a tu

nyelvtanulás fontos tényezője

A korábbi olvasási módszertan feltevéseivel szem

ben a felmérések azt mutatják, hogy a szöveg

95—97%-át meg kell értenünk ahhoz, hogy magát

a szöveget is megértsük. 2000 szóból álló szó

kinccsel átlagosan kb. 90%-os megértést érhe-

tünk el a mindennapi beszédben, valamint az

egyszerűbb irodalmi szövegek esetében. 4000

szóból álló szókinccsel a szöveg kb. 95%-át érthetjük meg.

A szó ismerete sokkal több, mint pusztán a szó

jelentése. Tudnunk kell, hogy milyen szövegkor-

nyezetben használhatjuk a szót, milyen nyelvtani

változások lehetségesek, és azok mit jelentenek.

Ezt a tudást mindenekelőtt a nyelvvel és az anya

nyelvi beszélők között szerzett személyes nyelvitapasztalatokon keresztül, azaz olvasással, anya

nyelvi szövegek hallgatásával, szóbeli és írásbeli

kommunikációval szerezhetjük meg.

Az önálló kommunikációhoz kb. 2000 szót kell

ismernünk. Ennyi szó elegendő ahhoz, hogy meg

értsük a mindennapi életben előforduló szövege

ket, tudjunk zökkenőmentesen társalogni hétköznapi helyzetekben. Az angol nyelv magas

szintű használatához viszont mintegy 4000 szóra

van szükségünk. Ha ennyi szót tudunk, megért

jük a tudományos-szakmai, illetve szépirodalmi

szövegeket is.

Alapfeltétel azonban, hogy az alap- és kiegészítő

szókincset tartalmazó gyűjtemény valóban aleggyakrabban használt 4000 szót tartalmazza.

Ha ezen szavak mintegy 40%-a hiányzik, akkor a

„nyereség” csak 2400 szó, és ez nem elegendő

ahhoz, hogy szókincsünket olvasással vagy más



kommunikációs tapasztalattal önállóan bővít-

hessük.

Tapasztalati alapok

Ez a tematikus szókincsgyűjtemény a Leech és

munkatársai által 2001-ben összeállított British

National Corpus (BNC) gyakorisági szőjegyzéke

alapján készült. A BNC 100 millió szóból áll, és

nagyrészt 1984 és 1994 között publikált szövege

ken alapul. A célkitűzés a Nagy-Britanniában be

szélt és írott angol nyelv reprezentatív korpuszá

nak elkészítése volt. A korpusz 10%-a szóbeli,

90%-a írásbeli szövegeket vesz alapul. Az írott

korpusz szűk 60%-a könyvekből, 30%-a újságok

ból és folyóiratokból ered. A szövegeket a tudo

mányos és szórakozató területekró'l gyűjtötték

össze. A szóbeli korpusz egyik része különböző

szociális rétegek, korcsoportok, nemek és vallá

sok angol anyanyelvűi közötti beszélgetésekből

származik, a másik része a nevelés és tudomány,

gazdaság, politika, valamint a szabadidő téma

körének tudományos előadásaiból, vitáiból me

rít.

Leech és munkatársai elektronikusan tovább dol

goztak a korpuszon, és többek között a 10 000

leggyakoribb szó és szóalak jegyzékét állították

össze. Ahhoz, hogy az alapszavak jegyzékét meg

kapjuk, a Leech-féle gyakorisági jegyzéken to

vább kellett dolgozni. Töröltek minden ragozott

alakot, továbbá törölték még a neveket, számo

kat, betűket, szimbólumokat, rövidítéseket, indu

lat- és szitokszavakat is. Az eltérő írásmódú - pél

dául brit és amerikai - szóváltozatokat

ugyanahhoz a szóhoz tartozónak vették, akárcsak

a színt és nemzetiségeket jelölő mellékneveket és

főneveket.

A Leech-féle gyakorisági jegyzék egyetlen

problémája, hogy csak az egyes szavakat adja

meg, az igéből és elöljárószóból álló vonzatos

igéket (phrasal verbs) mint például get up, carry

on és take over, viszont nem. Emiatt a tematikus

alap- és kiegészítő szókincshez még hozzáadták

az Oxford 3000-jegyzékét. Ez a jegyzék szintén a

BNC-re nyúlik vissza, de magában foglalja a

phrasal verb-eket is, és tartalmaz egy olyan

szójegyzéket, amely ugyan nem tartozik az angol

nyelv leggyakoribb 3000 szavához, de több mint

70 nyelv- és neveléstudományi szakember

szakmai kutatócsoportja az angolt mint idegen

nyelvet tanulók számára nagyon fontosnak tart.

Ide tartoznak például a fontosabb testrészek, az

utazáskor használt szókincs és olyan szavak,

amelyekkel más szavak magyarázhatóak meg.

Az angol nyelv leggyakoribb 4000 lexémáját ösz-

szehasonlították az Oxford 3000-jegyzékkel. Ez

utóbbiban 5000 olyan szót találtak, amelyek a

4000 szót tartalmazó listában nem voltak jelen,

és ezekkel kiegészítették ezt a szókincsgyűjte

ményt. Ezeket a szavakat 3000 sorszámmal jelöl

ték meg.

Némely szót két külön osztályba is besoroltak,

mindenekelőtt a többjelentésű szavakat, ameny-

nyiben mindkét jelentését gyakran használják.

A kategóriákon belül először az alap-, majd a ki

egészítő szókincs szavait soroltuk fel. A szőjegy-

zék magával a szóval kezdődik, majd feltüntettük

a fonetikus átírást, és végül megadtuk a szó gya

koriságát alap-, illetve kiegészítő szókincsen be

lül. Ezután következik a magyar jelentés. Csak a

témához tartozó jelentést adtuk meg. Végül egy

példamondatot olvashatunk, amely a szónak a

témához tartozó jelentését mutatja be.

Az első oszlopban a szó mögött egy szám találha

tó, mely a 4000 szóból álló jegyzékben elfoglalt

helyét jelöli. Például a 334 azt jelenti, hogy a szó

az angol nyelv leggyakrabban használt szavai kö

zül a 334-edik.



5

A fordítások a leggyakoribb - elsősorban - tema

tikus jelentést adják meg.

A példamondatok célja a szó legjellemzőbb szö

vegkörnyezetben való megjelenítése és megje-

gyezhetővé tétele.

Szótanulás

Átfogó ismerettel rendelkezünk nyelvünk szavai

ról. Tudjuk, hogyan ejtjük ki őket, hogyan írjuk,

mit jelentenek, hogyan használjuk őket monda

tokban, milyen egyéb szavakkal és milyen szö

vegtípusokban és szövegkörnyezetben jelennek

meg legtöbbször. Ezt a tudást egymásra épülően

- az egyik jellemzőt a másik után - sajátítjuk el,

amikor ezekkel a szavakkal kommunikatív össze

függésekben találkozunk. Ahhoz, hogy egy szót

megjegyezzünk, egy meghatározott időszakon

belül átlagosan 16 alkalommal kell találkoznunk

vele.

Ha a szót megtanultuk és begyakoroltuk, jelentő

sen kevesebb ilyen típusú találkozásra van szük

ség és jelentősen nő az esélye annak, hogy az

adott szónak más jelentéseit is megtanuljuk.

A szavakat hallott szöveg értése, beszéd, olvasás

és írás formájában is gyakorolni kell. Egy nyomta

tott szótár elsősorban azt a célt szolgálja, hogy a

szó jelentését, valamint írott alakját is elsajátít

suk.

Először az alapszókincset tanulja meg vagy is

mételje, és csak azután térjen át a kiegészítő

szókincsre! A következő módszert javasoljuk: Fi

gyelmesen olvassa el az alapszókincs szóanya

gát, ejtse ki a szót és annak különböző alakjait,

valamint a hozzá tartozó mondatot, és próbálja

meg azt megérteni! Takarja le a magyar jelen

tést és a példamondatot, és próbáljon meg em

lékezni a szó magyar jelentésére! Jelölje meg

azokat a szavakat, amelyek nehézséget okoztak,

és írja le azokat a példamondatokkal együtt a

szótárfüzetébe!

Ezt a módszert alkalmazza minden fejezetben, és

rendszeresen ismételje azokat a szavakat, ame

lyeket a szótárfüzetébe lejegyzett! Ezzel a mód

szerrel naponta lehetőség szerint 4 fejezetet dol

gozzon fel, amelynek időtartama legalább 15

perc legyen, de ne tartson tovább 30 percnél.

Jobb naponta gyakorolni, mint csak egy vagy két

alkalommal hetente, akár több órán keresztül.

Ha gyorsan kell elsajátítania a szavakat, termé

szetesen tanulhat naponta akár egy-két órát is.

További segítséget jelent az is, ha a tanulás mel

lett lehetősége nyílik egyszerűbb szövegek olva

sására, ahol találkozhat ezekkel a szavakkal. Ad

dig, amígazalapszökinccsel foglalkozik, tanácsos

egyszerűbb, könnyedebb szövegeket olvasni,

olyanokat, amelyek a 2000 szót tartalmazzák.

Amikor már a kiegészítő szókincset tanulja, olyan

szövegeket olvasson, amelyek már ezeket a sza

vakat is tartalmazzák! A speciálisan erre a célra

fejlesztett olvasmányok mellett olvashat

egyszerűbb regényeket vagy más olvasmányokat,

mindenekelőtt gyermek- és ifjúsági irodalmat,

valamint szórakoztató irodalmat. Az azonban

fontos, hogy a szöveg szavainak 95%-át megértse.

Ha kétsoronként több, mint egy szót nem ért

meg, akkor az a szöveg túl nehéz és egy nehézsé

gi fokkal könnyebb szöveget kell választania.

A könyv létrejöttében többen is segítségünkre

voltak, és mjnkájukért köszönetét szeretnénk

mondani. Mindenekelőtt Yvonne Kretzschmar-

nak, aki a projektet a kezdetektől fogva koordi

nálta és kísérte, valamit Nadine Randallnek és

Caroline Foxnak, akika szavakat kategóriákba so

rolták és sok példamondatot írtak.

Köszönetünket szeretnénk kifejezni Helga Holt-

kampnak és Gunther Weimannak, a Cornelsen

kiadó munkatársainak, akik szárnyaik alá vették

e munkát, és a kiadó mindazon munkatársainak,

akik hozzájárultak ahhoz, hogy ez a szép könyv

kiadható legyen.

Külön köszönet illeti Udo Diekmannt, akinek az

adatbankja nagyban megkönnyítette munkán

kat, és aki minden problémánk megoldásában

segítségünkre volt.

Sok örömet kívánok a tanulásban, és remélem,

hogy ez a tematikus szókincsgyűjtemény segít

céljai elérésében.
