  4. Methodological Arrangement of Selected Vocabulary Every word has its form, meaning and usage, and each of these aspects have its difficulties. So arranging the vocabulary according to each difficulties is a matter of great importance in teaching.

  5. The vocabulary selected for assimilation in schools is divided into receptive and productive minima.

  6. The selected vocabulary should be divided into school forms through the instruction taking into consideration: • the aim of teaching/learning, • the peculiarities of the words, such as concrete or abstract, difficulties in form, meaning and usage, • the age of the learners.

  9. Verbal ways of conveying the meaning of unfamiliar words In the target language • a definition: all the words used in the definition should be known to the learners to be able to guess the meaning • putting the word in a defining context or a sentence. • using the word in a clear and comprehensible situation, • giving a word in the opposite meaning(antonym) • giving a word in the same meaning(synonym) • analyzing word-building elements • guessing from the context • guessing from the similarity of the word in-the mother tongue or in Armenian.

  10. Verbal ways of conveying the meaning of unfamiliar words Through translation into the mother tongue: • common translation • translation-interpretation.
