623 Vocabulary Z-A
Did you know that there are over 600,000 words in English? That's a lot of words, and far more than any human being could ever manage to learn.

Parrot
I’m not going to write the punchline of the joke here, but the tag line is What’s orange and sounds like a parrot? English humour can be difficult for non-native English speakers. This is why simple English jokes are a very good way of teaching vocabulary, and why I’ve chosen a very simple joke for this lesson.
