Abstract
The aim of this paper is to provide some insights into the concept of mental lexicon (above all its conceptual basis) and to emphasize the cognitive purport its implementation could bring to the often neglected domain of vocabulary learning in L2 (German), as far as the different phases and types of lexical processing are concerned (ranging from sensory reception up to understanding, memorizing and retrieval of lexical units).
