What is an "entry word"?
An entry word refers to a word that is listed in a dictionary or glossary, serving as the main term for which definitions, explanations, or information are provided. Entry words are typically displayed in bold or highlighted text, making them easy to identify. Each entry includes relevant details such as pronunciation guides, part of speech, definitions, example sentences, and sometimes information about the word's origin or usage. The purpose of an entry word is to help users quickly locate and understand the meaning and context of a word within a reference work, supporting language learning and effective communication.
