The analysis of the questionnaire, which was submitted to both groups, results revealed that subject students face several difficulties in mastering semi-technical vocabulary. After, both groups were pre-tested to check their knowledge of the semi-technical vocabulary. Then, the experimental group was exposed to a treatment by implementing the card game in teaching semi-technical vocabulary, while the control group received no especial instruction. After that, both groups were post-tested. The analysis of the experiment data confirms that through scattergories the card game help ESP students master more semi-technical vocabulary and memorize them. In that reason, ESP teachers are recommended to apply scattergories the card game in their classrooms and during their instructions.ar
