Abstract

In the context of multilingual education in Kazakhstan, the study of a second foreign language takes on special significance, since the formation of a multilingual personality is an important direction of the language policy in Kazakhstan. University teachers face the issue of updating the methodology of teaching a second foreign language within the allocated hours for this discipline. The article is devoted tj the study of some methods of teaching the vocabulary of a second foreign language to students with the state language of instruction. The article discusses the linguodidactic principles of teachinng vocabulary and word formation of the German language, such as morphological.lexical and conceptual differences between the Kazakh and German languages. These features affect the selection of active vocabulary and require the use of methods that facilitate the process of mastering vocabulary. The purpose of research is to study effective methods of assimilation of lexical units and methods of word formation in the German language. The results of the methodological expirement display the efficiency of the proposed methods for the formation of an active vocabulary in the experimental gpoup compared to the control group. The use of these methods allows to reduce the level of difficulities that arise while studing vocabulary in German and contribute to the successful implementation of new lexical units and word-formation models.
