Questions about Workplace English

Do I need an account to use Workplace English?

No. You can read every word, hear it and play its moments without signing in. A free account is only for starting a pack: Talk then adds 5, 10 or 20 of its words a day to your review and keeps your progress.

Where do the words in Workplace English come from?

From the TSL 1.2 by Browne, C. & Culligan, B., shared under CC BY-SA 4.0. Talk grouped the words into 13 units and added how often its videos say each one, up to three video moments and a meaning chosen to match them.

How were the moments in Workplace English picked?

Each moment is one caption line from a video in Talk's catalog where the word is said. A word gets up to three, each from a different video, and a moment is dropped when its line no longer matches the video's captions. 1,213 of the 1,250 words have at least one moment, 1,080 have all three, and the rest show the dictionary only.

How is this different from Work & business?

They cover different ground: Workplace English is everyday work words: travel, customers, offices and services, and Work & business is meetings, money, emails and office talk. The two packs share 575 words, and 331 of those come with different moments in each pack.

Packs to try after Workplace English
