Dear children,

We carry in our pages an article on dictionaries. By the way how many of you know how to refer a dictionary? This is quite simple - all the words are arranged in alphabetical order. From the first letter in a word to the last letter, the word is arranged in alphabetical sequence . Then the meaning of the word is given and its usage is also given in some instances.

Learning to refer to a dictionary is paramount because it will help you with the vocabulary and then you will know the exact meaning of the word you are about to use. There are various types of dictionaries; like the concise dictionaries and the advanced dictionaries. Now you even find the COMET (Speaking) OXFORD English Dictionary and Thesaurus which will make things easier for a learner.

Bye for now,

Aunty Merle.
