摘要:AbstractVocabulary has always been one of the significant issues related both with teachers and learners of foreign languages. This study aimed to explore if imagery strategy was helpful for lower-intermediate student's English vocabulary learning in comparison to direct translation. Participants in this study were 40 EGP learners. Half of them were in the experimental group and the others were in the control group. The experimental group received imagery instruction as a treatment for a semester. The pre-test and post-test were administered in order to examine the effects. Results revealed that the experimental group outperformed the control group in terms of English vocabulary mastery.
