USING DICTIONARIES (STEP 7)

LEARN HOW TO USE AN ONLINE DICTIONARY

Online dictionaries are easy to use. First, choose an online dictionary resource you like the most. Many of them are free and, others require subscription. The only thing you have to do is to type the word you are looking for. The web engine of that page will return the word with the definition. In that definition you can find many elements we talked in the previous steps. Keep in mind that free services can not be as comprehensive as subcription service is.





  • Use the audio-content provided with online dictionaries. This will help you to pronunciate the word correctly.
  • When using "Google" to find online definitions, type "define:(the word or words)". The search engine will only look for definitons.
