The result from this study can give us the knowledge about the importance of vocabulary understanding and motivation for students in junior high school. Students who don’t know any vocabulary related to English language will be stuck on the way they learn English.Their motivation will be decreased too. On the other hand, teachers who don’t understand these kinds of importances get some difficulties in teaching English for their 6 students. It is because students in junior high school need to know so many vocabularies for their own good. If teachers don’t enrich students’ vocabulary in junior high school, their English learning life will be doomed. They will think that learning English is difficult. It also affect to their motivation too. They will not understand with the teacher’s explanation in senior high or vocational school. Those kinds of effects will be stayed for their entire life.
