Abstract

In learning a foreign language, vocabulary plays an important role. It is one of the elements of language that links the four skills, speaking, listening, reading and writing all together. In order to communicate well in a foreign language, students should acquire an adequate number of words and should know how to use them accurately. But, learning vocabulary is not simple. Because the students must understand not only the meaning of the words, but also must know how to pronounce and use it contextually. The biggest problem in learning vocabulary is most of the students are easier to forget what they have learned. In other words, they have problem in vocabulary retention. Besides that, every student has different characteristics, interest, and ability. Consequently, they have different learning strategies that are suitable with them. That’s why learning strategies in learning vocabulary is very important. It is needed by students to help themselves understand and remember vocabulary in easier, and joyful ways by using their own ways. So, the learners can take more control of their own learning so that they can take more responsibility for their own learning. Consequently, they can become good language learners.
