Abstract
In recent years, applied linguists in the field of multimedia-assisted language learning have begun to reexamine the importance of vocabulary studies under the premises of substantiating its contribution to cultivating L2 learners’ language fluency. One of the nagging questions that have emerged from this endeavor is how many words and what kinds of words we as language practitioners ought to teach university students. The purposes of this paper are then two-fold: 1) to construct a list that EFL university students need to know for reading academic English textbooks and 2) to develop a web-based levels test of the constructed vocabulary list. To this end, this research will compare and contrast two classical word lists (General Service List and Academic Word List), five world-known English dictionaries, and the British National Corpus. It will then compile some 9,000 words in descending frequency order by conducting quantitative and qualitative experiments with both university students and professors. The paper will conclude by providing a list of vocabulary for EFL university students and by developing a web-based vocabulary levels test with several pedagogical implications and future research directions.
