@Shalena okay maybe this is a me problem then. I'm learning as a foreigner and my goal is to get lots of building blocks so I can construct new sentences as needed instead of repeating things, so if I need to say "oh look! A bird's nest" or "aaaa, there is a bird in my bedroom!". Teaching the meaning of each word is more helpful to me personally than one long block of 'theearlybirdcatchestheworm' or 'littlebylittlethebirdmakesanest' but I guess that's just me since nobody else seems to have a problem with it.
