purpose for the specialized vocabulary that communicates a variety of concepts by means
lesson of technical language. This type of language is commonly used in research
writing. For this quarter, you will try your hand at developing your own
research paper. “To be able to write a good one, it is essential to provide
clear definitions or explanations for unfamiliar terms. Once you learn how to
use dictionaries, thesaurus and other online sources, defining technical
terms will be easy.”

d. Discussing new 1. Using the DICTIONARY

concepts
If you are unable to understand the meaning of an unfamiliar word by
using context clues, then you should look up the word in a dictionary. Here
are tips for proper dictionary usage.

✔ Look at the preface and notes in your dictionary. The preface contains
explanations about the various symbols and abbreviations. Find out what
your dictionary has to offer.

✔ Good dictionaries include all known definitions of a word. When you are
looking up a word, do not stop after you have read the first meaning! Keep
reading and look for the meaning that best fits the context of your sentence.

✔ If the difficult word has a prefix such as un-- or mis-, you may have to
look up the root word.

Other Important Entry Elements

1.1. Guide Words

The words listed in a dictionary are listed in alphabetical order, letter

by letter. Pairs of guide words are usually at the top of each set of facing
pages. Guide words list the first and last defined word to appear on a page
(or facing pages). Using guide words help you quickly locate the word you
seek. If the guide words on facing pages are symbolic and sympathy, you
will have to turn to the next page to find symphonic.

1.2. Main/Word Entries

Main entries are the words that are explained in a dictionary. These
words appear in boldface (dark) type. Main entries may be single words,
compound words, abbreviations, affixes, or phrases.

1.3. Parts of Speech

The dictionary uses nine abbreviations for the parts of speech.

n. noun
v.t. transitive verb
adj. adjective
pron. pronoun
interj. interjection
adv. adverb
v.i. intransitive verb
conj. conjunction
prep. Preposition

1.4. Restrictive labels

Subject labels tell you that a word has a special meaning when used
in a particular field (mus. for music, med. for medicine, zool. for zoology,
etc.) Usage labels tell you how a word is used (slang, colloq, for colloquial,
dial. for dialect, etc.) Geographic labels tell you in which region of the
country (N.E. for New England, West, South, etc.) the definition applies.
1.5. Spelling

Not knowing how to spell a word can make it difficult to find in the
dictionary, but not impossible. You will be surprised at how quickly you can
find most words by following the sounded-out spelling.

2. Using the THESAURUS

The best place to look for synonyms and antonyms is the thesaurus.
A thesaurus is, in a sense, the opposite of a dictionary. You go to a
dictionary when you know the word but need the definition. You go to a
thesaurus when
you know the definition but need the word. For example, you might want a
word that means fear, the kind of fear that causes more worry than pain.
You need the word to complete the following sentence:

▪ Ginny experienced a certain amount of (fear) over the upcoming exam.

The thesaurus comes in two forms: Dictionary Form and Traditional

Form. If it is in dictionary form, you simply look up the word fear as you
would in a dictionary. If, however, you have a traditional thesaurus, you
need to first look up the word in the alphabetical INDEX at the back of the
thesaurus. You
might find this entry for fear in the index.

FEAR 860
Fearful painful 830
timid 862

The numbers after fear are GUIDE NUMBERS, not page numbers.
If you look up number 860 in the body of the thesaurus, you will find a long
list of synonyms for the word fear: These include fearfulness, timidity,
diffidence, apprehensiveness, solicitude, anxiety, mistrust, suspicion, and
qualm.

So, instead of using the word “fear,” the sentence becomes more
appropriate by using a synonymous word:

▪ Ginny experienced a certain amount of anxiety over the upcoming exam.

3. Using the INTERNET

The internet provides many different types of information. Besides

the dictionary and a thesaurus, definitions of terms may also be searched
 via the World Wide Web. Moreover, those who have smartphones may
download mobile dictionary apps, such as Merriam-Webster, and Oxford
Dictionary of English.
