Abstract

The article deals with the problems of testing vocabulary in the process of teaching foreign languages.

They also contribute to the effectiveness of learning and provide information for the teaching process. Cultural differences between the students' native and foreign languages should be taken into consideration in the process of creating lexical tests.
