Please remember, we are NOT looking to become a dictionary.  We have therefore decided not to create a comprehensive vocabulary list.  Instead, we focus on learning vocabulary in context where it will be useful. Rather than individual vocabulary pages, we focus on subjects. If there are complicated words or similar words that need more in-depth explanation, add each word's  category.
