  The primary value of the Wortliste lies in its definition of scope. Learning a language is an infinite process; one could study German for a lifetime and still encounter new words. This infinity can be overwhelming for exam candidates. The Wortliste solves this problem by providing a finite, clearly defined corpus of vocabulary. It offers a "contract" between the exam creators and the candidate: if you know these words, you will understand the reading and listening texts, and you will have the tools necessary for the writing and speaking sections. This psychological benefit should not be underestimated; it transforms vague anxiety into a manageable checklist. goethe zertifikat wortliste b2
