What level is 1,000 words?

Is 1,000 words a lot? Well, it kind of depends, doesn’t it? Think of it this way: it puts you at about an A2 level, what they call “Elementary” fluency. It’s definitely a step up from the A1 beginner stage (which is around 500 words – feels like nothing once you get past it!). But you’re still looking up at the B1 Intermediate mountain, which is closer to 2,000 words. You know, sometimes I think about how crazy language learning is. Like, my friend Lucia, she’s Italian, and she was telling me how she struggled to get past the 1,000-word mark in English. She felt stuck for ages, but then suddenly, it was like a dam burst. Started reading more, watching English movies… bam! Vocabulary just exploded. So yeah, 1,000 words is a good milestone, a solid base. But it’s just a stepping stone, right? So much more to learn! It can be daunting, but stories like Lucia’s remind me it’s totally achievable. Just gotta keep plugging away, I guess!
