ABSTRACT
 The relationship between second language vocabulary and listening comprehension has been barely explored, and in most cases with inadequate instruments. This study intends to bridge those gaps by examining the contribution of the language learners’ vocabulary size to their listening ability.
 The vocabulary size of 284 learners of English was assessed with both an aural and a written vocabulary test. A standardized listening test was used to assess their listening ability. Data were analysed with the Rasch model to determine the participants’ abilities and the item difficul

Abstract:
Students must begin learning vocabulary after it has been presented and often before it has been practiced. While practicing and applying vocabulary is an important part of the learning process, students often require time to process a vocabulary item. The first step is to figure out how to record various aspects of the word - What do words mean? to get an idea of how difficult it is to know a word. It is critical to keep a word somewhere accessible or to keep it in mind. In teaching English vocabulary to students through vocabulary classification techniques, we can group words and develop the

Acquisition of word meanings, or vocabulary, reflects general mental ability (psychometric g) more than than do most abilities measured in test batteries. Among diverse subtests, vocabulary is especially high on indices of genetic influences.
