Book Description
A dictionary is probably the single most important reference book that a student of English can buy. This dictionary is especially important, because for many of its users it will be the first dictionary entirely in English that they use.
Like all COBUILD Dictionaries, the New Student's Dictionary is based on the analysis of real language in use. Over the last few years, we have built up a huge collection of text, both written and spoken, called The Bank of English. At present, The Bank of English stands at over 320 million words, and it forms the basis of all the statements that COBUILD makes about the language. It enables the dictionary writers at COBUILD to explore the way in which the language works, and reveals the patterns and systems that underlie the English language.
Because it is all held on computer, The Bank of English provides very fast and accurate access yo all sorts of information about the language. One very significant area is word frequency. This information is absolutely vital in helping to prepare dictionary entries, both because it helps in the selection of words that are suitable for use in dictionary definitions, and because it provides a sensible list of words that need to be included and defined.
The entries provide a detailed account of the main uses and meanings of each word. Each of the forms is listed at the start of each entry, along with information about variant spellings where they exist. Explanations are written in full sentences, and reflect typical grammatical behaviour as well as providing a clear description of meaning. And of course, the thousands of examples are taken directly from The Bank of English, showing typical patterns of use and grammatical structure.
There are a number of usage notes throughout the text which supplement the information already provided in the dictionary entries, and which, in many cases, draw together information that helps to clarify the distinctions that exist between some items.
In the early pages of the book there is a Practical Guide to Using the Dictionary: this lists all the important features in the dictionary, and provides exercises to help the user become more proficient in dictionary use.
