Sir, your specialism is lexicology, and you always underline the importance of lexicon, but I'm confused. According to my own learning experience, I've accumulated a large vocabulary, but my language ability has not improved noticeably as a result. There are still a lot of journal articles that I can't understand.
Your confusion is a confusion for a majority of students too. Put it this way. Before learning a language, really understanding the role of words in language is very important. It can even completely change your understanding and view of language.
There are many different contesting schools of opinion on the role of language. Even if your interpretation is "vocabulary is everything in a language", then how do you go about interpreting this sentence correctly?
OK. So first of all we have to understand a concept. The concept that vocabulary is the repository of a language. According to Noam Chomsky's theory lexicon, the lexicon is the brain's internal dictionary, a repository.
