The Lexical Approach (Lewis 1993, 1997a) originated in the last decades of the last century and was established as a very interesting research proposal in the field of language education. It is a well-structured and coherent teaching proposal based on a reconsideration of language as a uniform lexis-grammar organism by overcoming the dichotomy between lexis and grammar, in a lexis-grammar concept in which the focus shifts from grammar to lexis. Therefore, in this paper we propose to reconsider the theoretical-practical of Lexical Approach bases by presenting an articulate description of its theoretical framework as an exploration of all the possible practical and methodological applications in the development of learners' lexical competence.

Abstract
The Lexical Approach (Lewis 1993, 1997a) originated in the last decades of the last century and was established as a very interesting research proposal in the field of language education. It is a well-structured and coherent teaching proposal based on a reconsideration of language as a uniform lexis-grammar organism by overcoming the dichotomy between lexis and grammar, in a lexis-grammar concept in which the focus shifts from grammar to lexis. Therefore, in this paper we propose to reconsider the theoretical-practical of Lexical Approach bases by presenting an articulate description of its theoretical framework as an exploration of all the possible practical and methodological applications in the development of learners' lexical competence.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
