Abstract

This article investigates the impact of extensive reading on the vocabulary development of university students. Extensive reading, which emphasizes reading large quantities of text for general understanding rather than focusing on individual words, has been widely recognized as an effective method to enhance lexical knowledge. The study examines how regular exposure to diverse reading materials, such as novels, academic articles, and authentic texts, contributes to the acquisition of new vocabulary, retention of previously learned words, and overall language proficiency. Practical strategies, including reading for pleasure, annotating unfamiliar words, and contextual guessing, are discussed as methods to maximize vocabulary growth.
