摘要：AbstractThe article explores some ways of teaching economy and finance students on a higher course. It looks into the problem of German vocabulary. It presents some considerations concerning compounds. All the complexities of that area are the reason why we are introducing some limitations of the issue. They lie in the following three points: a) We only concentrate on one field studentś studies; b) we focus on noun compounds only; c) we are concerned with compounds made up only from two components. Material learnt has been gathered by means of the complex excerption of professional texts. The example items have been selected from about one thousand of dictionary units. The compounds with the highest usage frequency are given precedence over others. Some attention is given to the written forms of compounds, more amount of attention is devoted to semantics of the relevant items. We round of the article with a brief summary of recommendations for further teaching practice. The focus of the article lies in the methodology of teaching the German language, not in linguistics.
