Nowadays,
many students who have difficulty to speak words in English and many students
are anxious to speak English just because of the lack of English vocabulary. Sometimes,
the teachers often find errors on students using vocabulary that often swirl
and convoluted. However, vocabulary
can be obtained anywhere and anytime .Vocabulary
acquisition can go through the process of learner training, workplace, and
social issues.
One
way in obtaining a vocabulary that is learner training, where we get the
students to think about how they learn best. Learning training involves tasks
such as showing the students different ways of note-taking and asking them to
think about which ones they prefer, or talking about different types of
listening text and the skill that are appropriate for them. Besides, we
can also make learning vocabulary through songs and pictures. Teachers train students to
remember vocabulary by playing songs in the English language learning process.
Teachers can also increase vocabulary
acquisition by using images such as pictures of organs and body parts, animals,
objects, etc.
Another
ways is workplace that also very important in the acquisition of English
vocabulary of self-motivation. Students
can get new vocabulary based on their experience who have visited a particular
institution or institutions such as hospital and airport. In the hospital, the
students can get new vocabulary through general sign and biologi terrms such as
waiting room, no
parking,chasier,silence,psychology,etc. As well as at the airport,
students can also acquire new vocabulary by taking into account the common
signs that exist around the airport such as departure,
arrival, way out, slow down,etc.
and
lastly, the social issues that also play a role in students' English vocabulary
acquisition. The social issues can get from television and magazine. On television, students can
obtain a variety of vocabulary even
broader scope such as foreign news where students will acquire more vocabulary
even more difficult and profound. Students will gain a lot more difficult words
in the news or outstanding issues on television. In addition to the news on
television, students can also acquire vocabulary by looking at western films
aired on television so that besides getting the vocabulary, students can also
improve listening skills. In
magazines, students can read the stories of inspiration that contain a lot of
new words and the students can record important words to remember. In this
case, the students not only improve vocabulary but also the ability to read. So,
a lot of skills that can be obtained from the acquisition of vocabulary through
social issues.

the students can obtain and use the English vocabulary anywhere and anytime.
The student can expand the understanding and use of English vocabulary through
learner training, school and workplace, as well as social issues. A lot of
resources that we can use to improve English vocabulary.So,be
