Vocabulary is by far the most sizable and unmanageable component in the learning of any language, whether foreign
or one’ mother tongue. No language acquisition can take place without the acquisition of lexis. As far as any of the
world’s major languages are concerned, every other aspect of language learning is dwarfed by the proliferation of
different meanings in their tens of thousands, and the seemingly infinite shifts in meaning brought about by
contextual variables. Language learners sometimes, if not often, feel that they cannot remember words that they
attempt to learn. Such words are probably not committed to memory effectively, and not stored in such a way they
may be easily retrievable when necessary. In order for learners to go about deepening their receptive or productive
mastery of vocabulary items, they must first remember the words well enough to recognize them.
