and posttest confirm that readers were able to use the subconsciously acquired words in
sentences, whereas the subjects who spent their time in learning dictionary meaning of words
really could not use the learned words in sentences.

readers read unfamiliar words they acquire at least partial meanings, and repeated exposure to
such words will result in a considerable amount of vocabulary development. This is, of course,
incidental learning. Readers acquire vocabulary when they focus on the meaning of the text they
