Vocabulary is the fuel. / Neil J. Anderson/

It is possible, she says, to summarize the most important consideration in vocabulary in these three questions:

1. What vocabulary do my learners need to know?

2. How will they learn this vocabulary?

3. How can I best test to see what they need to know and what they know now?

Answers to these questions are given by the students in our questionnaire. We found that our research turned to be logical and rather useful. Moreover, according to Vygotsky / Thought and Word / ‘The relation of thought to word is not a thing but process” … “ it undergoes changes, moves, grows and develops.”

In addition, if language is as old as consciousness, any word is a thing in it, then, consciousness is reflected in a word as the “sun in a drop of water”. /Lev Vygotsky and his famous work “Thought and Language”.

Finally, a great deal of overlap exists between development of vocabulary skills and its acquisition. First, it is a long term process. Second, vocabulary study can be integrated throughout the reading. Next, using both of these strategies may be helpful. In th end, vocabulary as a part of language acquisition may be viewed as a skill today and in the future.
