Explanations

Think about this vocabulary program that you are now using to learn English words.

This program is based on statistics that identify which words appear most often in academic texts in English. These words are called “high-frequency” words, because statistics show that you will meet these words again and again when you read academic texts in English.

This means that the CHANCES of seeing these words are higher than chances of seeing other words - so high-frequency words are the words you should try to remember.
