How to Teach Vocabulary: Based on Effect of Semantic Transparency upon English Vocabulary Acquisition

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This paper focuses on the vocabulary teaching strategy of semantic transparency (ST). In today's increasingly rigid vocabulary teaching, ST appear to be particularly important. This study elaborates on how to effectively teach vocabulary by enhancing ST, that is, by using lexical structure and word formation components to clarify semantics. This method helps students to understand polysemous words and compound words more accurately, remember vocabulary for a longer time, and improve the accuracy of vocabulary use. This paper provides new ideas for vocabulary teaching innovation, helps teachers optimize teaching strategies, and promotes students' vocabulary learning effectiveness.
