Summary/Abstract: The article aims to define the role of teaching vocabulary at the secondary level. Methodists say that teaching vocabulary is an important element in developing and strengthening students' speaking skills. Vocabulary enrichment is very important for cultivating students' ways of expressing themselves and is done systematically in English language lessons. But this is not just about noticing or learning new words. It is shown that in order to achieve the cognitive finality of the new lexical units, they must be explained and used in the right context. It is obvious that a rich vocabulary contributes to effective communication in different situations. But at the same time, we should not forget that vocabulary is taught along with other important components, such as grammar, spelling, and pronunciation.The article also reflects the views of well-known linguists on the role of vocabulary in language acquisition, its aspects and classification, as well as the stages of vocabulary acquisition at secondary school
