# What is a Word Vector?

Before we tackle the intricate aspects of Large Language Models, it's crucial to understand the foundational concept: Word Vectors. Imagine language as a vast, multi-dimensional space where each word has its unique spot. Word vectors convert words into a numerical format, making text comprehensible to LLMs.

In the accompanying video, Anup Surendran lays the groundwork for understanding LLMs by exploring basic questions:

* What exactly are LLMs?

Note: As you move through the modules, you'll see that some videos are segmented and shared across various submodules. This strategy is deliberately chosen to align with the textual content and maintain a coherent learning journey. However, the video mentioned above isn't split in this manner. :)
