Dear all:
Thank you for all your replies regarding the using of ppt. Now, I have another question.
I have been reading something about vocabulary teaching recently. One set of questiones is always in my mind: If you were counting words that your learners needed to learn, what would you consider?
For example,
1) what are words? Do you consider the names of people--Elizabeth, Philip, Charles, Anne--to be vocabulary? What do learners need to learn about them? Should the names of products like Pepsi, Vim, Big Mac, and Totota be counted as part of a learner's vocabulary?
2) Are the words in italics the same words or different words?
Should
neutral as in
neutral gear be counted as the same word as
neutral as in a
neutral country?
Should
hard work be counted as a part of
hard or
work or as a separate piece of vocabulary?
I am wondering...
