[https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.8186563](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.8186563) PENDAHULUAN Vocabulary is an essential aspect of language, especially in terms of speaking. Hamer & Rohimajaya (2018) stated that vocabulary is an important part of learning English, but it needs to be addressed in the learning process. Vocabulary is a language component related to using words when someone speaks. This was also conveyed by Agung et al.,(2021). The key to learning a foreign language is mastery of vocabulary, which is also important for oral and written communication, but this research focuses on oral communication that relies on speaking skills. Thus, it can be said that mastery of English vocabulary to students will be an asset for them to master speaking skills in learning English, including properly communicating in this foreign language. Vocabulary proficiency impacts the power of students to learn English, especially speaking ability. Therefore, learning vocabulary is essential for students (Razaq, 2022) . At this stage, the challenges of vocabulary mastery for junior high school at their level are quite different from those faced by students at other school levels, because at their level, transition from level beginner (in elementary school) to intermediate stage of the level English (Cabezas-L et al., 2019; Mirioglu, 2020) . Researchers identify the problems that occur during the teaching and learning process. Students’ problem with vocabulary make feeling bored due to the teacher's use of media. Teachers need to modify some learning media so that the process of learning English is more effective. However, educators continue to translate media to expand students' vocabulary. This can be seen from the textbooks they have read (Matruty & Que, 2021) . The use of media by the teacher is one of the techniques to make the class interesting for students. Various objects, pictures, and other materials can be used as teaching tools to present and modify the language and involve students in activities (Nurmala & Suryaman, 2022) . One of these is an educational game with flashcard media which is considered capable of generating a sense of motivation to learn vocabulary. The strategy of using flashcards is anticipated to improve students' ability to learn English vocabulary. According to Hadi & Romadhon (2021), flashcard media is material in the form of cards with certain pictures or instructions to help students learn a subject matter more quickly. By using flashcards, students can learn English vocabulary while having fun and being more involved in the learning proces
