Answer 1

Answer:

D. active vocabulary

The vocabulary that a learner uses effectively in their own speech and writing is called their active vocabulary.

Active vocabulary consists of words that a person knows well enough to use correctly and fluently in daily communication. This is in contrast to passive vocabulary, which includes words a person understands when heard or read but may not use actively in speech or writing.
