| description | The paper focuses on some traditional techniques for vocabulary teaching in the untraditional context of English for specific purposes – business English vocabulary teaching.

Moreover, attention should be paid to their translation equivalents because learners’ general professional competence is based on the correct use of the respective specialized vocabulary both in the foreign language and the mother tongue. |
