Summary
Vocabulary learning is the basis of the language learning process in teaching Arabic as a second language. Vocabulary learning strategies need to be used in order for vocabulary learning to take place effectively (Sami et al, 2017). Oxford (2003) defined language learning strategies as “specific actions taken by the learners to make learning easier, faster, more enjoyable, more self-directed, more effective and more transferable to new situations. Language learning styles and strategies are among the main factors that help determine how–and how well–our students learn a second or foreign language. The proposal aims to explore the vocabulary learning strategies used by learners of Arabic used by 17 learners of Arabic in subject Maharah Istima‘ wa Fahm (Listening Skills) in semester two at the Faculty of Islamic Studies (FIS) in National University of Malaysia (UKM)
