description The amount of learners’ vocabulary is the most important factor in detecting students’ proficiency, competence, and level of learners of English. Vocabulary teaching methods have been appealed to linguists, especially in the TESOL field. This paper aims to discuss three cognitive-linguistic principles in teaching vocabulary for EFL learners of English, namely the study of categorization, prototype, and metaphor. The findings of this research provide light on how EFL learners deal with particular figurative interpretations of lexical items whose core meanings they are familiar with and may therefore help to the improvement of existing methods to vocabulary instruction in the early English process.
