- Abstract
Vocabulary acquisition is central to language learning and of critical importance to the students. There are many occasions when students cannot use words precisely and correctly due to their inadequacy of vocabulary knowledge. This paper aims to prove the significance of sense relations construction in vocabulary teaching. The idea of applying sense relation to vocabulary teaching is not a new one. But the application of different theories in sense relation construction and the designing of various exercises and activities in sense relation is a new attempt in this research field. The paper aims to provide a more effective way and a new perspective for vocabulary teaching to help students so that better learning will occur in the classroom as well as in the self-teaching environment.
