This is Epic English's own word list for Year 12, put together by our editorial team. It isn't copied from any school, publisher or government list, and it isn't an official Australian Curriculum list.

Hear it, then spell it

Practice plays a clear pronunciation, then you type the word from memory. The illustration below is what that looks like once the list is in your account.

Why these words, and how review helps

Senior English brings a shift towards formal, essay-register vocabulary, the words that show up in analysis and argument rather than everyday conversation. These words are usually harder to mishear and easier to misspell, so hearing them said clearly still matters, just for a different reason than it did in primary school.

Words only start their review schedule once you're actually tested on them, not just from reading through the list. Miss a word and it comes back for more practice; keep getting it right and, as it settles in, the gaps between its reviews stretch out. This is the same spaced review used across every list in Epic English, including your own.
