Kako govorci angleščine kot tujega jezika uporabljajo slovnične informacije v petih vodilnih britanskih slovarjih za tujce

Grammar is one of the elements of lexicographic description. In order to find out whether dictionary users use their dictionaries to retrieve grammatical information, we carried out a research-based study investigating their skills. This article presents and discusses the results of a study into the use by EFL students of grammatical information included in five leading British learners' dictionaries. The ability of students to use dictionary entries was tested by means of 33 sentences. Some of the sentences were grammatically correct; others contained a grammatical mistake. The students had to detect mistakes with the help of enclosed dictionary entries. The aim of the study was to find out whether there were any great differences among the dictionaries used and how successful the test subjects were in finding and using grammatical information.Slovnica sodi med sestavne dele geselskega članka. Da bi ugotovili, ali uporabniki slovarjev uporabljajo slovarje za iskanje slovničnih informacij, smo izvedli raziskavo, v kateri smo preučevali njihove tovrstne sposobnosti. V članku so predstavljeni in razloženi rezultati raziskave o tem, kako govorci angleščine kot tujega jezika uporabljajo slovnične informacije, vključene v pet vodilnih britanskih slovarjev za tujce. S pomočjo 33 povedi smo testirali,v kolikšni meri so uporabniki sposobni uporabljati geselske članke. Nekatere povedi so bile slovnično pravilne, druge pa slovnično nepravilne. Študentje so morali s pomočjo priloženih geselskih člankov prepoznati napake. S to raziskavo smo želeli ugotoviti, ali obstajajo kakšne razlike med uporabljenimi slovarji in kako uspešni so testiranci pri iskanju in uporabi slovničnih podatkov
