Summary/Abstract: The author notices that insufficient mastering the foreign language vocabulary may remarkably impede the communication process. Thus, it is important to form proper lexical habits based on methodical enriching the lexicon and the grammatical rules. This positively influences the communication improvement – both oral and written. The article presents the analysis of psycholinguistic regularities that influence the proper vocabulary acquisition, with the special attention paid to the memorising processes and the rules of proper memorising, as their knowledge is crucial for planning the work on enriching the lexicon and creating exercises on learning new vocabulary.
