Wait, what do you mean 80% completely unknown? You have gathered 3616 words, are learning or have learnt 723 of them, have 2893 words waiting to be learnt but not yet learnt, and you're mining further words and finding the texts difficult? Why don't you get all 3616 words learnt first?
I didn't need 4 "learnt"s there but I'm having fun annoying you.
You're suggesting I should stop mining at 3600 words and just drill-drill-drill until I know them all, then find new words? I can do that, but what difference does it make if the target is 6000 or 7000 words? Why not keep mining as I go? I'm curious.
I really know something like 1700 words, but I only started this deck two weeks ago, so Quizlet only knows that I know 723 and there doesn't seem to be any speed dial ...

Thanks for the list. I start to see why some people find flashcards or language-learning difficult.
I don't know. Speakeasy said TV drama is crap and never uses any hard words. The first three sentences of episode 3 of "Black Heart" are something like "I just got back from the secret clinic in Africa. I have ten doses of platelets. Pure." Something like that. I should skip over platelets? If it turned up in a lousy TV show it's a beginner word, right?
