NAME

WordLists::EN::CommonException - Collection of English common exception words

VERSION

This document describes version 0.001 of WordLists::EN::CommonException (from Perl distribution WordLists-EN-CommonException), released on 2020-07-01.

DESCRIPTION

Common exception words, sometimes called "red words", or "tricky words", or "sight words", are words that don't quite follow the spelling or phonics rules but are often found in high frequency in English text [1]. Examples would include "once", "our", "was", etc. Therefore, children are taught to memorize these words in early years of learning.

Each school or teacher will probably setup a slightly different list of these words.

From monsterphonics.com: "The most top 300 high-frequency words make up 65% of all printed words. Almost half of these are not decodable using phonics. The result is that around a quarter of the words that children are asked to learn to read and spell cannot be done so phonetically. It is therefore vital to explicitly teach the common exception words."
