To misunderstand is to understand but incorrectly.The 5% mislearnt of all the words we “know” will be the lea

27、st frequently used words, as the more frequently used words are less likely to be mislearnt. Some of the misunderstanding may live with all our lives, without knowing that we got them wrong.

29、age learning does not work.
