After reading ‘A Clockwork Orange’ which contains 241 ‘nadsat’ words (invented language) repeated on average 15 times, students were tested on the meaning of these words & the average score was 76%.

It is thought that only a small percentage of such learning is due to direct vocabulary instruction, the remainder being due to acquisition of words from reading.
