ABSTRACT
Lexical competence, as part of communicative competence, takes into account a series of
elements among which mastering lexical valence is one of the factors allowing to distinguish
native language speakers from people who study a foreign or a second language. The article
presents methodological considerations for the implementation of a booklet on lexical valence
in English for Medical Purposes which, developed from students and professors’ cognitive
needs, aims to improve fifth year medical students’ technolect. It makes terms enriching
technolect easier to practice and to acquire; therefore contributing to a contextualized, fast
and more efficient learning by students. Apart from the practical character of the proposal, its
theoretical basis can be used as reference for the development of other booklets.
