JUSTIFICATION
The researcher want to explore his own context.Many similar studies had been done before.
In review of literature we can find Read(1995),
vocabulary knowledge has three elements:synonymy,polysemy and collacation.Qian (2002) mentions,paradigmatic ans syntagmatic relationships are important because they appeared frequently in discussions of vocabulary knowledge.

PROCEDURES 2
No penalty for incorret answers providing 20 minutes in exams. Students had prepared for the immedite post test and were not
informed of the intention to administer delayed posttest.It was applied after two weeks of immediate test.
The third test was applied all the same only target words were changed to see ıf sense relation strategy is able to facilitate students’ maneuver on the words that had not been explicitly taught.
Iın sense relation treatment Brown and Paynes’s model is used: 1-encountering new words 2-getting the word form 3-
constructing sense relations 4-consolidating 5-using the word. In consolidating teacher provide appropriate exercises to train
and consolidate newly learned words and help learners to get retention.

CONCLUSIONS
