Abstract

Language is the most important thing in this world; without language, you cannot communicate with others. Without the language, we cannot convey what we want to convey. For instance, one individual cannot understand what he hears or reads if he does not have any idea about the language and also cannot express what he wants to say or write if he has no idea about the correct or proper words to express. One of the most important language items that should be taught to children is vocabulary. Having enough knowledge about vocabulary will allow the students to communicate with others.
