Abstract: Vocabulary acquisition is a fundamental part of learning any language,
especially in English, which is widely spoken and used around the world. To
effectively master vocabulary, learners should engage with a variety of strategies to not
only remember the meanings of words but also understand their usage in different
contexts. A rich vocabulary is crucial for both communication and comprehension in a
second language. An essential part of vocabulary learning is the use of an English
dictionary, which provides comprehensive definitions, examples, and even phonetic
transcriptions of words. In addition, many dictionaries include information about word
origins (etymology), synonyms, antonyms, and related forms of words, allowing
learners to expand their vocabulary even further.
