Most dictionaries
will tell you a number of things about a language. There are three important
things. These three things are spelling, pronunciation and meaning.
First,
a dictionary will tell you the spelling of a word. If you are not sure about
the spelling of a word, you can try to find the correct spelling in a
dictionary. Words are listed in an alphabetical order-a, b, c and so on. For
example, on a dictionary page the "poor" comes before "poverty"
and the word "poverty" comes before the "power". The words
are always given in alphabetical order.
The
second thing, a dictionary will tell you the pronunciation. Most dictionaries
give phonetic (语音的), or sound alphabet. Most dictionaries use the
International Phonetic Alphabet shows pronunciation.
The
third thing, a dictionary will tell you the meaning of words. You can look up a
word and find out what it means. Many words have more than one meaning, and a
good dictionary will tell you all of the word's meanings. For example, in
English the common word "get" has over 20 different meanings.
