I don't want to get into an argument about whether English has more words than any other language as that brings out the idiot in everyone. However, I would be interested to know if you think English has any advantage over other languages in the production of ‘Literature'. I have seen various estimates for the size of Shakespeare's vocabulary, ranging from about 18,000 to 25,000. I have also seen estimates claiming that the ‘average' native English speaker's vocabulary is around 8,000. Obviously it depends on many variables so I'm not interested in discussing the accuracy of the figures or how they are measured– you can make up your own minds about that. What I am interested in, however, is whether or not a huge vocabulary makes any significant difference to what ends up as Literature. Whatever the final count might be, someone writing in English certainly has an enormous number of words at his or her disposal. Does this matter? uk essay writing
