Abstract

This article discusses the significance and advantages of using electronic dictionaries in teaching and learning foreign languages. The authors highlight how e-dictionaries, as a modern technological tool, facilitate rapid word search, provide pronunciation guides, offer usage examples in different contexts, and support the development of both passive and active vocabulary. The article reviews different types of electronic and printed dictionaries, explains criteria for vocabulary selection, and describes practical strategies for integrating e-dictionaries into classroom activities. Special emphasis is placed on their role in enhancing language skills, improving cross-cultural communication, and promoting learner autonomy. The findings suggest that electronic dictionaries are an essential resource for effective and interactive foreign language education in today’s digital age.
