The main concern of the author is the role of a definition vocabulary in how foreign learners understand and perceive dictionary definitions. The author takes the reader through a detailed historical account of controlled vocabularies and examines definitions in a range of English dictionaries with respect to their vocabulary loads. He performs a series of experiments with university students to reveal merits and shortcomings of restricted vocabularies. This monograph has been written with the aim to fill a gap in the literature on defining vocabulary. It is intended for lexicographers, dictionary editors, course designers, teachers, and students, as well as anyone who wishes to explain words in an intelligible way"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aTerminology and Lexicography Research and Practice 606 $aEnglish language$xLexicography 606 $aDefining vocabulary 615 0$aEnglish language$xLexicography. 615 0$aDefining vocabulary. 676 $a423.028 700 $aKamin?ski$b Mariusz Piotr$01615256 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823743103321 996 $aDefining with simple vocabulary in English dictionaries$93945372 997 $aUNINA
