Which tier of words includes specific academic vocabulary?

  1. Common Words

  2. Dialect Words

  3. Rare Words

  4. Specific Academic Vocabulary

The correct answer is: Common Words

Common words are everyday words that are commonly used in language and are essential for communication. These words are known by the majority of individuals and are typically understood by a wide range of people. Specific academic vocabulary, on the other hand, consists of words that are specialized and commonly used in academic settings or specific subject areas. These words may not be as commonly known by the general population but are crucial for understanding academic texts and discussions. Therefore, it is important for educators to explicitly teach specific academic vocabulary to students to enhance their understanding of academic content.
