Abstract EN

It is difficult to define what «a good dictionary» is because one would also have to take into account the good / bad use on the part of a user.

Anyway, the answer requires that there is a very good knowledge of the dictionary work and a very good relationship between the dictionary and us.

In our article, we offer a reflection on terminology and methodology on the possibility of making dictionary pragmatics and didactics two essential disciplines within the teaching of a foreign language (in our case of FFL).

If the pragmatics of the dictionary were the occasion for a relationship that will be created between the potential user and the (lexicographical) signs, the didactics of the dictionary, on the other hand, would be an essential support for the implementation of strategies of use and consultation of the lexicographical work.

Both disciplines will be possible in the probability of having a good dictionary and bad use or a bad dictionary and good use.

If the two main figures are the dictionary and its user, we must also take into account the role-played by the lexicographer and the teacher.

Our work becomes an opportunity to also offer some general recommendations that could be useful to lexicographers, didacticians and teachers.
