Conclusions The number of words is constrained by factors such as word difficulty, but need not be limited to only a few words; Establishing the meaning of a new word first and then presenting its form is a standard approach Translation is an economical way but may not be the most memorable Illustrating is effective but limited to certain kinds of words Explaining verbally is time-consuming but should be clear and simple The spoken form can be highlighted through the giving of clear models, the use of phonemic script, and repetition The written form should should not be withheld too long Learners should be actively involved in the presentation
