Ltd.10.26689/jcer.v5i12.2871ArticleA Review: Language Awareness from the Perspective of Vocabulary Variation and Changehttps://artdesignp.com/journal/JCER/5/12/10.26689/jcer.v5i12.2871ZhouWei,XuPeihong,ZhaoQuan20215122021-12-27Language awareness refers to the consciousness of what language is and how language works. The process of establishing or developing language awareness should be a discovery of language use by learners themselves, maybe under the guidance of teachers. In this way, language awareness is considered not only as a linguistic term, but also a pedagogical approach. Just like society, change is also constant in the world of language. This paper aims to provide a reflection on language awareness from the angle of vocabulary variations and changes.
