A theme for every moment of the year
Summer, birthdays, pancake day and Chinese New Year join the themes. Taste, music and the mountains now have their page and their moment in the year.
Themes with verbs and adjectives
The themes of Lexikit now mix nouns, verbs and adjectives, because a vocabulary made only of nouns does not let you make sentences.
Why the same words in every resource
A word is learnt by meeting it often, in varied situations. That is why Lexikit starts from a single list of words for every resource.
