Hence, to master a language, learners need to gain sufficient vocabulary storage. The latter plays a very important role in language learning, yet many language learners find it difficult to fluently use the language because of poor vocabulary storage as with inefficient use of strategies. In addition, retaining words that have been learned for a long time is a too demanding task, learners can remember the word once or twice but later the operation will not be as easy as early exposure time. For that, the use of some strategies that enable learners to recall words easily is of great importance. The present study attempts to investigate the student’s as well as the teachers’ attitudes towards the use of mnemonic strategies in vocabulary development. We hypothesize that teachers and students of English at university of Constantine 1 would show a positive attitude towards the use of mnemonic strategies in which these strategies would be viewed to have a positive impact on vocabulary development. For this reason, two questionnaires were administered to a sample of thirty-one Master –one students and eleven teachers during the academic year of 2020-2021, to get the necessary information about their opinions and attitudes towards the use of mnemonics as a memory strategy in enhancing foreign language learners vocabulary. The findings indicate that the majority of students use mnemonic strategies especially “music mnemonics”; similarly, a significant percentage of teachers do use these strategies to enhance their student’s vocabulary. These results go in the direction of our hypothesis that they do play a positive role in enhancing foreign language vocabulary. The study recommends that the application of mnemonic strategies should be considered in the acquisition of foreign language vocabulary.
