The Lexical Approach.

The Lexical Approach.

This approach is a way to teach vocabulary. Lewis (1993) said:"...Language is
grammaticalised lexis, not lexicalised grammar...". In other words, lexis is central
in creating meaning.

In this approach is very important the vocabulary more than grammar, because
without words can not say anything.
