How these numbers are made
Every figure on this page is computed directly from the pack manifests and the pack registry the shipping app is built from. Each unique phrase is counted once per direction it ships in, the per-level “Everything” aggregates that bundle a level’s themed packs are excluded so nothing is counted twice, and the length averages cover every entry in the pair. The audio count was verified the same way: all 4,708 entries carry a recording, with zero gaps. Entries run ahead of distinct phrases because 178 recur at more than one CEFR level and are counted once in the distinct figure.
The proficiency grading follows the CEFR, and the English frequency backbone is the New General Service List (NGSL 1.2), published under CC BY-SA 4.0; Vocabcord’s derived vocabulary lists share that license.
