Features & Capabilities

Fry Words is an educational Chrome extension designed to help learners quickly recognize the most common English words. Based on Dr. Edward B. Fry's 1996 high frequency word list, this tool includes the first 500 words divided into five levels and groups of twenty-five. The words are ranked by frequency, with the top 25 words making up one-third of all published texts, making it a powerful resource for improving reading fluency.

The extension features flashcard-style learning with audio pronunciations available by simply touching each card. Users can mark cards for review and navigate efficiently through the word sets. It's suitable for young readers and adults learning English as a second language. A paid, ad-free version is also available for uninterrupted study. For extended learning, a second app offers the next 500 Fry Words.

User Reviews

Users generally praise Fry Words as an effective tool for teaching sight words, with parents and teachers reporting improved reading skills and independent practice. It aligns with school word lists and offers a paperless option. Common complaints are that words advance too quickly and there is no easy way to focus on words a child struggles with, such as adding words to a review list. Other issues mentioned include the word reader not responding to touch, hidden bottom buttons on some phones, lack of UK spellings, and a loading problem some experienced.
