“Language grows by taking terms from various fields. Each
A. Introduction field has a specialized vocabulary that communicates a variety of
concepts by means 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.”
Let Us Review!
1. Using the DICTIONARY
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.
ü 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.
ü 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.
ü 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,
B.Development Activity 1: Parts of a Dictionary Entry

Direction: Determine the part of a dictionary entry by using the
jumbled letters of the term and the provided meaning. You
may also use dictionary from online sources or mobile applications
to accomplish this activity.
1. An TRENY WORD, listed alphabetically, shows how a word is
spelled and how words of more than one syllable is divided.
2. The CIAROPNOITNUN has symbols to show how to say the
words.
3. A TRAP-OF-SCHEEP label gives the function or functions of a
word.
4. LATERED FORMS, such as plurals, or the comparative forms
are often given.
5. ULTIMPLE DEFINITIONS or meanings are numbered.
6. An ILLUSTIVERAT SENTENCE or phrase shows how a word is
used.
7. An EMOTYLOGY, or word history, tells the origin of a word.
8. An ENTACC shows which syllables are said with special force.
9. Sometimes a MYSYNON STUDY shows shades of meaning.
10. A MOGRAPHHO is spelled the same as another word but has
a different origin and meaning.
Activity 2: Using a Thesaurus

Direction: Use a thesaurus to help you circle out the correct
synonym to complete each sentence. You may also use thesaurus
from online sources or mobile applications to accomplish this
activity.
1. Raf looks (orderly, trim) in his new suit.
2. Her booth at the hobby show is very (tidy, trim).
3. She swept it out, and it is (trim, shipshape).
4. He arranged the items to appear (orderly, trim).
5. He put his stamps in (neat, shipshape) rows.

C. Engagement Activity 3: Words Worth Knowing

Directions: The thirty words included in the pool of words below
come from specialized areas. Categorize each to complete the
table. Determine how many of these words you know well enough
to use in your writing and speaking. Then, use a dictionary to look
up the meanings of words you do not know (10 words).
Activity 4: Search the Term

Directions: Replace the italicized words in the following sentences
with their exact specialized terms. Use a dictionary, the internet,
and the words in the parentheses as your reference. Configuration
clues (boxed letters) are also given.
Ex.: Use a hand to grab the heavy metal ball by the handle and
swing it up until it rests against your forearm. (Physical fitness)
Answer: Use one hand to grab a kettle bell by the handle and
swing it up until it rests against your forearm.
C.Assimilation Activity 5: Word Search Nutshell

Directions: In relation to the lesson and activities on word search
using dictionaries, thesaurus, and online resources, answer the
table below.
Activity 6: Word Search Nutshell

Directions: The text below is an excerpt of Steve Jobs, “Stay
Hungry, Stay Foolish” speech. To understand his message better,
look for the meaning of the eight (8) unfamiliar words in the
speech. In doing so, refer to the sample below:
