Sažetak
Students are faced on a daily basis with the task of acquiring and retaining new vocabulary It seems unnatural to expect students to know every single word or vocabulary item which appears in the text. They realize the important role vocabulary plays in all aspects of their language learning, However, even advanced learners, who may have more than sufficient vocabulary for their needs are unlikely to be able to read something like a newspaper article without finding a word that confuses them and they often feel frustrated for this reason. Vocabulary knowledge is not something that can ever be fully mastered. It is something that expands and deepens over the course of time. Instruction in vocabulary involves far more than looking up words in a dictionary and using the words in a sentence. Researchers realised that many of learners' difficulties result from an inadequate vocabulary. Even when they are at higher levels of language competence and performance, they still feel the need of learning vocabulary. Vocabulary has got its central status in discussions about learning a language and particular approaches have been developed.
