Literature review. Reading is a key activity for 
vocabulary enhancement as it exposes readers to a vast array 
of words. Research has shown that individuals who read 
regularly tend to have larger vocabularies than those who do 
not (Nagy & Herman, 1987). Moreover, reading allows 
readers to encounter words in various contexts, including 
different genres and formats, which further expands their 
vocabulary (Nation, 2014). One of the advantages of reading 
for vocabulary enhancement is that it provides context for 
words. The context in which a word is used can help readers 
understand its meaning and usage more effectively. This is 
because words often have multiple meanings, and the context 
in which they are used can clarify their intended meaning 
(Pulido, 2004). Research has shown that readers are more 
likely to remember and learn new words when they encounter 
them in context (Elley, 1991). Reading can also help readers 
learn the nuances of words and how they are used in different 
contexts. By encountering words in different contexts, readers 
can learn how words can have different meanings and 
connotations in different situations (Milton, 2009). Moreover, 
reading can help readers develop a more sophisticated 
understanding of vocabulary by exposing them to complex 
and abstract words that they may not encounter in everyday 
conversation (Nagy & Herman, 1987). Writing is an effective 
way to enhance vocabulary as it provides readers with an 
opportunity to use new words in a meaningful way. When
