Abstract

vocabulary study plays a significant role in language learning as well as teaching process. In the Chinese academic setting, a large number of college students have lots of difficulty in memorizing new words but easily forgetting those words they already learnt quickly. This thesis provides data and experience to support the fact that due attention should be paid to heightening English vocabulary learning, and meantime, tentative suggestions would be given for English vocabulary teaching. Thus the main purpose of this thesis is to probe into English vocabulary in its theory, do an empirical study and apply certain cognitive linguistic researches into vocabulary learning and teaching in order to solve the problem of how to memorize vocabulary effectively.
