American English as a Second Language (AESL) Podcast by Maestro Sersea

Episode notes

Deep vocabulary knowledge goes beyond simply knowing a word's definition. Full lexical knowledge of a word includes its pronunciation, its spelling, its common grammatical patterns, its collocations (the other words it habitually appears with), its register (formal or informal), its connotations, and its derivatives. Building this multidimensional knowledge requires encountering words many times, in many contexts, over extended periods. This is why vocabulary instruction must be both direct (deliberately teaching specific words) and indirect (creating conditions for extensive reading and listening that expose learners to words repeatedly).
