English is my second language and although I've been speaking it for two decades I still get words that I don't know when I'm reading a book. They are usually either archaic English words or very technical, for example some weapon that was used in 15th century.
When I use my kindle it's easy to check the meaning, little tap and all is revealed, the reading continues. But strangely when I'm listening to an audiobook and come across an unknown word, I don't stop to check. I'm not bothered by it at all. It's weird I know, but I found that few words in the book don't really influence neither my comprehension nor my enjoyment.
