ELL 112: American English, Language, & Culture II

A dictionary is a reference book or online resource that provides definitions of words. It usually includes information about pronunciation, parts of speech, and examples of how to use the word in sentences. Dictionaries help you understand the meaning of words. A political dictionary is a specialized reference tool that focuses on terms, concepts, and phrases related to politics and government. Think of it as a guide that helps you understand the language of politics, much like a regular dictionary helps you with everyday words.
