    Very informative about how dictionaries were made , statistics about how many words average people know . Really interesting . We never stop to think of how many words we store in our head , how many are essential for proper communication and how many fir real good , impressive conversation .
    I just know enough to communicate my thoughts and to appreciate in good writing . More difficult words always scare me . Even if i findout meaning of a difficult word from dictionary to understand some text , I will not remember it , nor use it myself anywhere :)
    I did not see the post you have spoken about which inspired you to write this . If a dictionary's help is required to read it , as you say , I am wondering if I should be taking the courageous step to read it :)
