When I first entered university, my aunt, who is an English professor, gave me a new English dictionary. I was 1 to see that it was an English dictionary, also known as a monolingual dictionary._2___it was a dictionary intended for non—native learners, none of my classmates had one __3__, to be honest, I found it extremely __4_ to use at first. I would look up words in the dictionary and _5__ not fully understand the meaning, I was used to the __6__ bilingual dictionaries, in which the words are _7__ both in English and Chinese, I really wondered why my aunt __8_ to make things so difficult for me. Now, after studying English at university for three years, I _9__ that monolingual dictionaries are __10_ in learning a foreign language
As I found out, there is __11_ often no perfect equivalence£¨¶ÔÓ¦£©between two _12___ in two languages£®My aunt even goes so far as to 13___ that a Chinese “equivalent” can never give you the __14___ meaning of a word in English! ___15_ , she insisted that I read the definition of a world in a monolingual dictionary __16___ I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning ____17__, I have come to see what she meant.
Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way. This dictionary uses a£¨n£© 18 number of words, around 2, 000, in its definitions. When I read these definitions, I am 19 exposed to£¨½Ó´¥£©the basic words and learn how they are used to explain objects and ideas. 20 this, I can express myself more easily in English.
