What are the key differences between A1 and A2 vocabulary levels

The key differences between A1 and A2 vocabulary levels mainly involve the quantity and complexity of words and phrases learners are expected to know and use.

At the A1 level, the vocabulary typically covers basic, everyday expressions and simple phrases aimed at satisfying immediate needs, such as introducing oneself, asking and answering simple questions about personal details, and familiar topics.

At the A2 level, learners have a broader vocabulary that includes phrases related to routine tasks requiring simple and direct exchanges of information on familiar matters. The vocabulary at A2 is more developed and includes the ability to understand frequently used expressions related to personal and family information, shopping, work, and immediate environment.

In summary:

• A1 vocabulary is very basic and limited to common everyday expressions and simple interactions.
• A2 vocabulary expands to include more routine and familiar subjects with slightly more complex language use.

This progression reflects increased language ability from knowing basic words at A1 to understanding and using a wider range of vocabulary for everyday situations at A2. ^{5, 11}
