The aim of my research was to discover more about what exactly language learners are using their dictionaries for. From the returns it is clear that dictionaries are being used extensively as sources of grammatical information including gender, spelling, synonyms, verb, noun and adjective forms, register and pronunciation, not just for meaning. These results raise questions about the design of dictionary entries and about teaching dictionary skills to language learners who will expect to use dictionaries in examinations at all levels.
