Many studies have been conducted that point out the importance of bilingual dictionaries in learning. Among Saudi learners, studies of bilingual dictionary use have all been conducted in Saudi Arabia, and have focused mainly on the purposes for which dictionaries are used and the skills needed by learners. The present research examines Saudi learners studying in an English-speaking environment to explore their perceptions of the role of bilingual dictionary use in their learning and patterns of dictionary use. For this study, ten Saudi students studying in Australia completed a series of comprehension and production tasks based on a short reading passage. Participants were permitted to use electronic or paper bilingual and monolingual dictionaries while completing the tasks. An individual semi-structured interview was then conducted with each participant. Data analysis revealed that bilingual dictionaries, particularly electronic ones, were seen by participants as beneficial in enabling them to find meanings quickly and with minimal effort, as well as allowing them to hear the words pronounced. While participants believed that bilingual dictionaries were suitable for beginners, there was a general view that such dictionaries do not facilitate learning and retention of new vocabulary, and are often misleading as they tend not to provide full contextual meanings. Performance data from the comprehension and production tasks offered some support for these views. Participants regarded monolingual dictionaries as superior in terms of improving learning, promoting word retention, and ‘thinking in English’, but highlighted the need for explicit training in the use of these dictionaries. These findings have implications for both pedagogy and future research. ; Mode of access: World wide web ; 1 online resource (112 pages) Keyword: bilingual dictionary; Dictionaries; English language -- Study and teaching -- Arabic speakers; monolingual dictionary; Polyglot; Second language acquisition; second language learning URL: http://hdl.handle.net/1959.14/1254925 BASE Hide details 10 Fluent or non-fluent? that is the question: Uncovering the cognition of L2 learners whose L2 Academic fluency exceeds their L2 everyday fluency Hashem, Rabab Ahmed. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2016 BASE Show details 11 Exploring the perception of phonemic vowel length contrasts: evidence from infants and adults Chen, Hui. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2016 BASE Show details 12 Learning morphophonological alternations across languages and populations Tomas, Ekaterina. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2015 BASE Show details 13 The acquisition of constraints in child Mandarin An, Shasha. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2015 BASE Show details 14 Speaking anxiety among Saudi ESL learners studying in Australia Al Yami, Abeer. - : Australia : Macquarie University, 2015 BASE Show details 15 Grammatical knowledge in children with autism Khetrapal, Neha. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2015 BASE Show details 16 Dynamics of bilingual early childhood education: parental attitudes and institutional realisation Benz, Victoria. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2015 BASE Show details 17 The interpretation of logical connectors by monolingual and bilingual children Geçkin, Vasfiye. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2015 BASE Show details 18 Early child bilingualism: cross-linguistic influence in the simultaneous acquisition of German and English Genske, Katharina. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2014 BASE Show details 19 The children's acquisition of shenme in Mandarin Chinese Liao, Min. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2014 BASE Show details 20 The temporal (re-)construal of experience: how native speakers of English and advanced Chinese learners select and interpret simple past/present tenses Xu, Jiahuan. - : Sydney, Australia : Macquarie University, 2013 BASE Show details Page: 1 2
