Lesson Proper LET US NOW MOVE ON TO OUR LESSON ENTITLED
GETTING THE MEANING OF WORDS USING A DICTIONARY,
THESAURUS, AND/OR ONLINE RESOURCES.
What do you use to understand the meaning of a word?
CORRECT!!! (Clap) We can use dictionary, thesaurus, or online
resources to find the meaning of a word.
A dictionary explains the meaning of a word and shows how it is
spelled and used. It has the following parts;

Guide words are found at the top of each page in a dictionary.
These words help find words easily because it tells you the first
and last entry words on a page.
Entry words are words in a dictionary arranged in alphabetical
order. These are written in bold.
Each entry word has the following information:
Pronunciation - This is separated into syllables and tells you
how to pronounce the entry word;
Parts of Speech - This abbreviation tells you what part of
speech the defined word is; and
Definition - This explains the meaning of the entry word. If there
is more than one meaning, the definition is divided by numbers.
Also, an example sentence is often used to make the meaning
clearer.
Do you now know what is a dictionary? Let us now proceed to
what is thesaurus. Thesaurus contains words that can be used
in place of another word (synonyms). This also contains
opposite words (antonyms) of an entry word.
Remember that the dictionary and thesaurus are very similar to
one another and the words are arranged alphabetically. The
parts are the same. The purpose is the same. But if you wish to
avoid overuse of words then refer to a thesaurus.
Aside for dictionary and thesaurus you can also use online
resources in getting the meaning of words in search engines like
