Abstract. Vocabulary acquisition is a crucial component of language learning, especially in basic education. Young learners frequently face difficulties in acquiring proficient vocabulary skills due to cognitive, linguistic, and pedagogical influences. This article analyzes prevalent challenges encountered in instructing English vocabulary to primary-grade pupils, highlighting concerns such as restricted exposure, absence of contextual learning, and inadequate teaching approaches. The study examines techniques to address these issues, offering practical options for educators to improve vocabulary learning in early learners.
