- W2000271292 abstract "A1 lmost every gadget or household appliance we buy today .comes with instructions for its use. These products all share the same feature, namely that they have been made to be used for particular purposes, and often in particular situations. Furthermore, the producers want us, the buyers, to use their products in a way that bestfulfils our needs, so they have done studies diat identifywhich functions their products must have to satisfy customer needs. Even generic products that have the same general purpose come with their own instructions because they have different practical functions. If I want to operate my DVD player, I need to read the instructions that came widi it, but diose instructions do not automatically enable me to operate my neighbour's DVD player of a different make. The two DVD players have the same generic purpose but have been designed differendy; one has fewer buttons on the frontpanel than die odier; one has more functions than the other, etc.; in situations like these, we need good instructions that enable us to get the most out of our gadgets and appliances. Dictionaries are lexicographic reference works that can be used for various purposes and in more or less well-defined situations. The typical user is likely to consult a monolingual dictionary in connection with reading and understanding a text, whereas the bilingual dictionary helps the user translate a text. In recent years lexicographic scholars have realized the importance of use instructions in dictionaries, and some even argue that the user guide is the second most important component in a dictionary after the wordlist (see, e.g., Kirkpatrick 1989; Landau 2001, 149). With the advent of Internet dictionaries, good user guides may be even more important seen from the user's" @default.
