You won't encounter difficult words in the first chapters of your textbook. You will encounter difficult words in newspaper articles in the "politics" section.
You won't encounter difficult words when reading a book written for a first grader.
You will encounter difficult words when reading a Haruki Murakami novel.
etc.
