- W786672984 abstract "AbstractThe purpose of learning a language is to communicate. For a communication to take place, a fixed set of is required one of which is vocabulary; something without which communication or negotiation of meaning is hindered. Vocabulary emerges at the very early stages of language learning. Since meaning is more important than form in communication, seems to have priority over some other aspects of language such as grammar. many conducted research in the realm of lexical knowledge, focuses on offering and suggesting appropriate ways to facilitate the process of learning/acquisition, specifically in EFL and ESL environments. To motivate the learners to make use of the best approaches to achieve desired goals, materials of the study should be selected with care. This research study attempts to investigate any probable differences between retention of general and technical vocabularies among undergraduate EFL learners. group of students majored in nursery took part in this study, the result of the given test, analyzed through matched t-test, indicates that samples remembered more specific vocabularies in comparison to general ones. That is, through the same strategy or technique of learning, learners retained more technical words in a specific period of time. It is argued that relatedness of the materials, based on the needs of the learners, is crucial in this regard.Key words: general/ specific vocabulary, nursery, needs of the learners, rememberingIntroductionVocabulary can be defined as the size or number of the words a person knows. A sum or stock of words employed by a language, group, individual, or work or in a field of knowledge (Merriam-Webster, 2003, p. 1400). Vocabulary is viewed in terms of active and passive. There are some language learners who know a majority of words, but cannot make use of them in speaking or writing. There are, also, some others who cannot remember the covered words after a short time. In educational settings, forgetting occurs shortly after the materials have been taught, perhaps due to lack of interest, motivation, concentration, practice, memory load, and the same. The important point is to help language learners, through different strategies, to retain the taught materials for a longer period of time. Since is required, by the language learners, for the next encounters and without adequate size learners cannot communicate clearly, lack of adequate lexical results in frustration, and removes the motivation to learn new items in the language. Language learners in EFL context, especially, experience this situation and usually complain that they have had enough practice, but they cannot remember the taught words at the moment. In this connection, different strategies are offered to help the language learners learn and retain lexical for a longer period of time, among which is the role of CALL in achieving the goal (Andreea, 2007).Vocabulary is of a great importance in learning a language. As Zimmerman (1991) argues is central to language and is of high significance for language learners. Learning of is longitudinal and demand a careful planning . Mokhtar etal (2010, p.72) state that vocabulary is not something that can be fully mastered; it is something that expands and deepens over the course of a lifetime. Several research emphasizes the critical role of in language learning (Nation, 2001). Learning and teaching of in a semantic field is, also, emphasized by others (Amer, 2002). In addition to understanding the basic sense of a word, Amer argues that identifying the relation of a word with other words with the same meaning, is recommended for EFL/ ESL learners. Shirai (2007) suggests mnemonics techniques for learning new words in English.Lexical has a critical role in learning all language skills. …" @default.
