vocabulary students could not be able to understand how the language is. The role of words is important to know how the language is used, practiced and communicated. If we want to communicate with others in certain language we need to master the language they belong to especially to know enough vocabulary of those languages. Words are the basic units of language from that supports the language itself.

As we know, English is a „world language’, now days the most communication tools for global communication. So, we must have a lot of „bank of English words’.
