40、36 to see that it was an English-English dictionary, also known as a monolingual dictionary. 37 it was a dictionary intended for non-native learners, none of my classmates had one 38 , to be honest, I found it extremely 39 to use at first.

43、a monolingual dictionary 51 I wanted to get a better understanding of its meaning. 52 , I have come to see what she meant.Using a monolingual dictionary for learners has helped me in another important way.
