The words on the Fry list span a vast vocabulary, from straightforward nouns like "the" and "and" to more intricate concepts like "information" and "communication." The Fry list seeks to provide kids with the vocabulary they need to recognize and read proficiently by including a wide variety of terms. High-frequency words are words that are used most commonly and frequently used in the English language, for example, 'and', 'the', 'as', and 'it'. These are smaller words that make up the majority of English written material.
