Abstract

Vocabulary is the most important factor that affects reading ability. Size and level of vocabulary are crucial components that improve reading comprehension. In order to determine the relationship between students' vocabulary knowledge and reading comprehension, the study's goal is to quantify it. According to the CEFR, this study focuses on reading skills at the B2 level and the first four thousand most commonly used words (The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages). 52 students from the English Education Departments of Ar-Raniry State Islamic University and University of Muhammadiyah Aceh participated in vocabulary and reading assessments as part of the study's quantitative non-experimental methodology. Correlation analysis, or Spearman rho correlation, was used to analyse the data. The findings demonstrate an association between vocabulary and reading comprehension with a correlation coefficient of 0.357. According to these coefficients, there is little association. As a result, for language acquisition, language learning instruction must include a sufficient amount of vocabulary and reading.
