TOP-Students™

Introducción

Aquí tienes una lista no exhaustiva de los verbos irregulares en inglés. Para cada verbo, hemos añadido una probabilidad (hipotética y no oficial, basada en nuestras propias observaciones) de que aparezca en el TOEIC®.

El objetivo es que puedas identificar qué palabras son más frecuentes en el TOEIC®.

Esta base te será muy útil, ya que te proporcionará un vocabulario mínimo, lo que te permitirá afrontar el TOEIC® con mayor facilidad.
