よくある質問
英単語の覚え方のコツは？
エビングハウスの忘却曲線によると、人は学習した内容の約74%を翌日には忘れてしまいます。1日後・3日後・1週間後・2週間後の4段階で繰り返し復習することが定着の鍵です。
1日10語×100日のペースで継続すると、100日後には300語をカバーできます。例文と一緒に覚えると意味と使い方が同時に身につくため、単語帳の日本語訳だけを丸暗記するより効率的です。
このページのクイズは何度でも挑戦できます。学年（中1／中2／中3）を選んで繰り返し挑戦することで、忘れにくい記憶として定着します。
英単語は何個覚えればいい？
文部科学省の学習指導要領（2021年度全面実施）では、中学3年間で扱う語数の目安を1,600〜1,800語と定めています。
高校入試の観点では、公立高校入試は約1,200〜1,500語が目安です。このページで扱う300語は最重要部分の基礎固めにあたります。中1〜中3の300語を確実に覚えたあと、教科書の本文・ワークブックで語彙を広げる流れが効率的です。
高校入試に必要な英単語数は？
公立高校入試では、教科書準拠の単語（約1,200〜1,500語）が読み書きできれば長文読解に対応できます。難関私立高校では1,800〜2,000語が目安となり、教科書外の語彙も問われます。
受験対策の定番教材としてはターゲット1800・キクタン2100が広く使われています。中3の夏休み明けから1冊に絞って反復するのが一般的な取り組み方です。
英単語が覚えられないときは？
一度に大量の単語を詰め込むと定着しにくくなります。1日10語に絞り、視覚と聴覚の両方を使うと記憶が定着しやすくなります。このページの音声ボタンで発音を確認しながら目と耳の両方で覚える方法が効果的です。
寝る前に新しい単語を覚え、翌朝に前日分を確認する「寝る前暗記＋朝の復習」サイクルも効果的です。スペルを完璧に書けるようにする前に、まず意味をすぐに答えられる状態を先に作るのがおすすめです。
単語帳アプリを使う場合も同じ原則が当てはまります。無料の英単語アプリを中学生向けに絞って選ぶなら、教科書準拠で音声付きのものを優先してください。
