英语词典使用
牛津的词典和朗文的词典的主要区别 牛津和朗文是英国两家著名的出版社，各自都出版了大量 的英语词典。读者经常提到的牛津与朗文分别指的是《牛 津高阶英汉双解词典》和《朗文当代高级英语辞典》（英 英?英汉双解）。这两部词典都是世界上知名的学习型词 典品牌，专门为母语不是英语的学习者编纂而成，各有特 色。 《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》历史悠久从20世纪20年代 第一版算起，到现在已经出版了6个版本。其释义严谨， 讲究准确，但英文释义阅读起来有一定难度。另外它的语 法标注详细，在读者中享有盛誉。 《朗文当代高级英语辞典》（英英?英汉双解）则以 读者为中心，采用词汇控制理论，用2，000个最简单的英 语单词解释所有词条，因而浅显易懂。朗文词典清楚地区 分口语和书面语，最常用的词汇按照频率分成1，000、2， 000和3，000三个等级。朗文的例句口语化，而且全部选 自真实的日常对话，更适用于强调英语口语学习的读者。 此外朗文词典图文并茂，用法说明详细丰富，尤其受到大 学和中学教师的欢迎

怎样查词典最有利于提高英语水平？
使用任何一本词典，首先要熟悉词典的功能和编辑体例。 词典有大小之分，类别之分。因此，各类词典的功能也就 不尽相同。 很多学习者查词典的时候只是看一下意思便草草而过，殊 不知这样会错过很多非常有用的信息。词典是一种信息量 高度集中的出版物，为了节约篇幅，很多统一的信息通过 标准的符号放在词典正文之中。好的学习词典对于词的用 法、搭配、易犯错误等方面有详细的介绍。只要你多花几 十秒钟的时间完整地去看一遍整个词条，相信能够在其中 得到很多有用的信息。学英语重在"泡"，如果你每次都多 花几十秒钟"泡"在词典中，那么多年后的收获会是你ongman Dictionary of Comtemporary English 4.2 《朗文英语当代大 词典》） 2.

如何最大化利用英语词典
如何最大化利用英语词典作者：唐静来源：《高中生·高考》2019年第05期本文从“形、音、性、数、义、搭、例”七个角度，谈谈如何在精读中查阅英语词典。
英语词典以柯林斯中阶词典、牛津中阶词典和朗文中阶词典为例。
形形，是指单词的拼写形式。
一般我们需要适当注意美式英语和英式英语在拼写上的区别。
以colour这个单词为例。
柯林斯中阶词典额外标注了英式、美式拼写的区别。
并且，该词典中有color词条，标注为“see colour"。
牛津中阶词典标注了“（US美color）”，意思是colour 的美式写法为color。
并且，该词典中也设有color词条，标注为“（US美）=COLOUR”。
朗文中阶词典中只有color这个词条，并且没有标出英式拼写方法。
朗文词典主要以美国英语为蓝本。
除了单词的英美差异之外，我们在查阅词典时，还要特别注意拼写上比较相近的单词，比如abroad和aboard，desert和dessert等，以帮助扩大词汇量并加强记忆，以免混淆。
音音，是指单词的读音。
掌握单词的读音是提高听力和口语最基本的前提。
看词典中单词的读音，要注意音节、音标、英美式读音、重音等多个方面。
在有些英语词典中，音节体现得特别清晰，每一个单词的不同音节会用“●”或“|”符号划分出来，比如，柯林斯中阶和朗文中阶两本词典中，我们查到的color就标示了音节，显示为color和col●or，表明这个单词有两个音节，分别是“col”和“or”。
音标决定着一个单词怎么读。
上述三本词典都采用国际音标的注音方式，略有不同的是，柯林斯中阶词典和牛津中阶词典主要采用英式读音，朗文中阶词典中主要标注美式读音。
重音，几乎所有词典都用重音符号来表示重音，用次重音符号表示次重音。
有些单词在表示不同的词性时，其重音是不同的，如record作名词时，重音在第一个音节上;作动词时，重音在第二个音节上。
性性是指单词的词性。
词性把握很重要，有些单词兼有好几种词性。
英语词典使用指南
Collins Cobuild系列一向标榜取材自首创的庞大英语语料库 (The Bank of English) 的真实地道英语语料、例证。这些都来自现实生活及媒体中常见常用的英语，包括口语、书面语、英式及美式英语。收词超过11万，包括部分词的各种演变及1.6万同反义词。超过10.5万项的真实例证正好反映每词的精确意义及使用场合。在版式方面，Collins Cobuild第三版独一无二的是正文旁的语法栏，突显各词的个别语法、语用、语调、词性、使用频率等特色，都比前版更充实。另外每词的各个释义用法分段列出，方便查阅，使版式更清晰。
5、Macmillan English Dictionary((以下简称MED)
MED(英国老牌出版公司麦克米伦公司的当家产品，语料库来源为World English Corpus，以2500个单字来解释所有词条。但其例句并不像Collins Cobuild坚持的原文照录，而是视需要加以适度改写，以适应非母语学习者的程度。创新的地方有许多，如采用双色套印，重点内容往往标以红色：一些常用字往往一个词条就占了很大的篇幅，所以词条下用红色区块先列出“易查清单”(menu)，让我们既快且准地找到所需要的定义；此外MED还清楚划分出大约7500字的核心字汇(core or productive vocabulary)以及非常用字汇(infrequent or receptive vocabulary)，核心字汇出现时为红色，外加星号，定义与解说比较详备，而非常用字汇的定义与解释则力求简短明了。重要的词条下还包含比喻用法(metaphor)的说明，让学习者可以深度体会英语为母语者为何有那样的表达模式，这一点是目前其他英文学习词典所不具备的。另外MED分成美语版和英语版，特别适合那些需要深入研究英式英语和美式英语区别的学习者。
