Слова в словаре расположены в строго алфавитном порядке. Внутри каждой рубрики заглавное слово традиционно заменяется знаком «~» (тильда):
income доход;~ tax- подоходный налог.
Омонимы (слова, сходные по внешней форме, но разные по значению) обозначаются римскими цифрами. Разные значения слова отделены арабской цифрой со скобкой (1);2)), а разные части речи - арабской цифрой с точкой (1.; 2.):
increase 1. увеличивать (ся) ; 2. возрастание, увеличение .
За знаком "◊" (ромб) даны фразеологические сочетания и идиомы:
age 1) возраст; 2) век; 0for~s- давно.
Значение слова, подходящее для данного текста, не всегда стоит в словаре первым. Следует внимательно просмотреть все гнездо и найти в нем те группы значений, которые даны к слову в той части речи, которую мы определили на основе анализа предложения.
Слово определенной части речи может иметь различные значения, поэтому при переводе предложения необходимо из многих значений выбрать одно. При отборе значения нужно исходить из общего содержания мысли, заключенной в данном предложении, также как и из общего содержания переводимого текста.
Так английские слова face, hand означают не только “лицо, рука (кисть руки)”, но также и “циферблат, стрелка”, если речь идет о часах. Обратите внимание на то, как изменяется значение словаface в зависимости от общего содержания предложения и того, к какой части речи данное слово принадлежит в следующих примерах:
1. In applying this method we may face some troubles.
1. При применении этого метода нам, возможно, встретятся некоторые трудности.
2. The builders will face the house with granite slabs.
2. Строители будут облицовывать здание гранитными плитами.
3. The eyes, nose and mouth are parts of the face.
3. Глаза, нос и рот – части лица.
