Abstract
In teaching and learning English, vocabulary is one of the important basic elements.
Students from many schools especially in Indonesia still have problems in vocabulary.

This study described Vocabulary Profile in English Textbooks used in Satya Wacana

as high frequency, low frequency, technical vocabulary, and academic vocabulary. In
this study based on Vocabulary Profile, the analysis only focused in high frequency
known as K1 words (1-1000) and K2 words (1001-2000) and also academic words
known as AWL words (academic). The sample was taken from a book English on Sky
from grade 7 to grade 9 and analyzed the vocabulary from the reading texts. The finding
